LAKE CHARLES-- McNeese volleyball will conclude its Southland Conference regular season road schedule this weekend when the Cowgirls travel to New Orleans Friday for a 2 p.m. match at UNO. McNeese will then travel to Hammond on Saturday for a 2 p.m. match at Southeastern La.
This week's Cowgirl scheduled was altered following a threat of a gunman on the campus of Incarnate Word just before the Cowgirls' Tuesday match. The match was eventually postponed to Wednesday, causing a change for the Cowgirls' match originally scheduled for Thursday at UNO to be moved to Friday.
McNeese (10-15, 5-5 SLC) currently tied for fifth place in the league with Houston Baptist and Sam Houston State following its five set loss to Incarnate Word.
