FIRST HOME GAMES

Bring 6-1 record from the road
Wolverines look for fan support at
first home games to be played this week

For the first time this season, the Wesley Wolverines will enjoy homecourt advantage in a few days as they host a couple of colleges for two midweek volleyball games.

► TUESDAY HOME GAME (September 9): 7:00 PM, Wesley Wolverines vs Goucher Gophers in the Wentworth Gymnasium at Governors Avenue & Fulton Street, Dover, DE.

PREVIEW: Over the past weekend, the Wesley College Wolverines lost just a single set in their three match sweep, while Goucher College Gophers (Townson, MD) did just the opposite, winning only one set as they drop three straight games at a very tough Johns Hopkins tournament. 

Still, the Gophers hold a 3-5 record, having impressively won three of their four opening weekend games in the prior week.

Kelli Wilkinson is the new head coach. Between 2002-2013, Coach Wilkinsom took Maryland high school teams to five conference championships.

The Gophers watched three key seniors graduate last spring, while now rebuilding with a team that has no seniors this year – i.e., four freshmen, a sophomore, and five juniors on the squad.

► THURSDAY HOME GAME (September 11): 6:00 PM, Wesley Wolverines vs Rosemont Ravens in the Wentworth Gymnasium at Governors Avenue & Fulton Street, Dover, DE.

PREVIEW: The Rosemont College Ravens (Rosemont, PA), who have not completed a full week of their season yet, bring to Dover, DE, a 0-4 record. The Ravens also have a new head coach, Brian Phipps, who served as an assistant coach last season. He makes his home in Wilmington, Delaware, just north of the Wesley campus.
