Green Bay Set for Four Games at Hampton Inn Bulldog Challenge

GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) - For the third consecutive weekend, the Green Bay volleyball team returns to the state of Iowa for a tournament. The Phoenix will play four matches in the Hampton Inn Bulldog Challenge hosted by Drake, beginning with contests against Stephen F. Austin and Drake on Friday. Green Bay will then face Idaho State and South Dakota on Saturday.

Green Bay's match with Stephen F. Austin will kick off the tournament at 10 a.m. Friday morning. The Phoenix will then be back on the court at 2:30 p.m. against the host Bulldogs. Green Bay will be looking for revenge against Drake after falling 3-1 last Friday. Saturday's matches against Idaho State and South Dakota will be at 10 a.m. and 5 p.m. respectively.

Senior Whitney Schott (Roscoe, Ill.) earned a spot on the all-tournament team in last weekend's Drake Invite. She totaled 95 assists while helping the Phoenix to a 1-2 record and a victory over Southern Utah.

Freshman Kara Lindstedt (Shoreview, Minn.) will be looking to build off an impressive weekend. She recorded a career-high 18 kills Sunday to lead Green Bay to a thrilling 3-2 win over South Dakota State.
