Omaha starts conference play with a 3-0 start with wins over North Dakota, North Dakota State, and South Dakota State. In the win Thursday night over SDSU, Faith Venables led the Mavericks with a season-high 19 kills and setter Maddie Stuesser surpassed 1,500 career assists.

Omaha takes down the preseason Summit League favorites, South Dakota State, in five sets and remain unbeaten in conference play. The Mavericks will be back at Baxter Arena on Saturday when they host South Dakota.

Hurrdat ownership is proud to support @OmahaVB as the program’s first-ever jersey patch sponsor.   For ownership with deep Omaha ties, it’s a meaningful way to give back to its alma mater and support the continued growth of women’s sports.
