It's a very slow news morning in Aggie Country. We'll be speaking with Coach Needham today and will get his thoughts on his team after a week of two-a-days as the team prepares for it's first exhibition game on Saturday afternoon. The Aggies will be taking on New Mexico Highlands at 2:00 p.m. There will also be a free clinic prior to the game at 11:00 a.m.

The Aggie volleyball team is in full practice mode as they prepare for their August 22nd date with the Alumni team. Yesterday the preseason All-Conference team was announced and senior outside hitter Krista Altermatt and senior right side hitter Kelli Goodan were both named to the preseason squad.

The Aggies will hold their annual preseason banquet on August 25th. For more information on when, where and how to attend contact Tricia Wright at (575) 646-7714.

We also spoke with Coach Jordan yesterday and we'll be unveiling our 2009 Aggie Volleyball preview in the next couple of weeks (in a similar format to our 2008 Aggie Volleyball Preview).
