Long Gym, beginning Tuesday when they step out of conference for a road swing at Baylor. The Cajuns are 1-1 all-time against the Bears, not having squared off with the Bears since 1991. The match will serve as the Cajuns first-ever trip to Waco with each of the previous two matches coming on a neutral court. Following the trip to Waco, the Cajuns head east for three more matches, including two this weekend at Appalachian State and Georgia Southern. Louisiana handed the Mountaineers their first loss of the season, 3-2, at Earl K. Long Gym on September 26, and followed that up with a sweep of Georgia Southern two nights later. This weekend will be the first ever trip for UL to either Boone, N.C., or Statesboro, Ga. Fans are encouraged to follow @UL_Volleyball on Twitter for in-game updates, and @ULRaginCajuns for all Ragin Cajun Athletics updates. Live stats will be available for each match of the tournament, while a live video stream will be available for the Ragin Cajuns match against Houston. NEXT WEEK: Louisiana closes out its road trip with a Oct. 24 trip to Atlanta, Ga., to take on Georgia State. UL then comes home for three straight home matches, welcoming in Abilene Christian for the final non-conference match of the season, followed by hosting Texas State on Halloween night and ushering in November with its first look at Arkansas State. QUICK HITS: - Stacey Reilly set a career high with 20 kills vs UALR on Friday. It was the most by a Ragin Cajun this season and the most by any Cajun freshman in a single match since Kim Rodgers had 27 against Alcorn State in August of 2003. Reilly also set a career-high over the weekend in digs, totaling 17 in the five-set win over Troy. - Sara Mossakowski has at least 12 kills in five of ULs last seven matches, with the Cajuns 5-2 record in those matches correlating with Mossakowski reaching that mark. The Cajuns are 9-1 this season when she has at least 10 kills, falling only to South Alabama on Sept. 17. - Senior Caitlyn Auxiliens 3.78 digs per set ranks in the top 10 in the Sun Belt Conference this year. She recently moved past Gina Calegari into fourth all-time at Louisiana in digs. Now with 1,566 for her career, she has become only the fourth player in program history to reach the 1,500-dig mark. Next up on the all-time UL list is Erika Castro in third place with 1,589. - Andrea Hole ranks fourth in the SBC with 10.07 assists per set. She surpassed the 2,000-assist mark for her career at Texas State. - Head coach Heather Mazeitis-Fontenot picked up her 98th win at Louisiana on Saturday, leaving her two victories shy of 100 as a Ragin Cajun. Only two other UL head coaches have more wins - Wilo Colon (132) and Sherry LeBas (111). #GeauxCajuns
