WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – The No. 17 Purdue volleyball squad makes its 2025 home debut with the Stacey Clark Classic, a three-day, four-team tournament featuring three top-25 programs including the Boilermakers, which will run Wednesday through Friday.

All matches will be streamed on B1G+, with Purdue playing at 7 p.m. ET each day.

NASHVILLE DONE RIGHT

  • Purdue hit .379% in the win vs. #RV Tennessee, tying as the 8th-best efficiency in a four-set match in Purdue history, including the first time since 2021.

THE STACEY CLARK CLASSIC

  • Purdue has won every Stacey Clark Classic since the tournament was dedicated to beloved fan Stacey Clark in 2016.
  • Purdue's record in Stacey Clark Classic matches: 21-0

MAKING A STATEMENT: RYAN MCALEER

  • Ryan McAleer, a sophomore, is the youngest Boilermaker to wear the libero jersey since 2016.
  • In her second-ever match as Purdue's libero, she posted a double-double vs. #RV Tennessee (11 digs, 11 assists).
  • Her double-double is the first for a Purdue libero since 2012 (Carly Cramer, 12 vs. Jacksonville State).
  • She is the youngest libero to reach a double-double in over 14 years.

ON THE LINE: 2 TOP-25 WINS IN HOLLOWAY

  • Purdue will be looking to add its 26th and 27th Top-25 wins in Holloway over the last 14 years.
  • A win vs. Georgia Tech or Kansas would mark the first win at home vs. a non-con ranked opponent since 2023.

HISTORY VS OPPONENTS RANKED #25-20

  • Purdue has won 10 consecutive matches against opponents ranked 20-25 in the AVCA poll (dates back to 10/22/2016).
