STEPHENVILLE (April 14, 2016) – The reigning volleyball champions of the Lone Star Conference have announced the schedule for this fall, which will begin on September 2.

For the fourth consecutive season, the TexAnns will open the volleyball regular season with a four-game tournament at Angelo State’s Kathleen Brasfield Invitational in the Junell Center in San Angelo.

After that, Tarleton will come home to Stephenville to host the Tarleton Invitational – which marks the first time since 2012 that the TexAnns will host a tournament in Wisdom Gym. The Tarleton Invitational will be a three-day tournament from September 8-10, over which the TexAnns will take on regional foes Lubbock Christian, Arkansas-Monticello, Colorado Mesa, and Colorado Christian.

“We’re excited about our schedule,” said head coach Mary Schindler. “The Lone Star Conference is always tough and you have to bring your ‘A’ game every night in our conference. We’re also excited for the opportunity to host a tournament. We have great teams coming into town and we’re very excited for the season.”

Following two weeks of tournament action, Tarleton will begin Lone Star Conference action with a September 16 match against Texas A&M-Commerce.

With the addition of Texas-Permian Basin and Western New Mexico into the LSC, 22 of Tarleton’s 23 non-tournament games are league games. Only an October 11 trip to Dallas Baptist will not count towards conference action.

All dates and times are subject to change.

Tarleton is coming off a 27-7 season, including a 15-1 mark in Lone Star Conference action that saw the TexAnns earn their first LSC Championship in school history and the right to host the LSC Championship Tournament in Stephenville.
