The volleyball team will finish a four-game road trip with two away games this week, starting against the University of North Alabama at 6 p.m. Thursday at CB&S Bank Arena in Florence, Alabama. <\/p>\n
The Mavericks then head to the University of West Georgia for a matchup at 10 a.m. Saturday at The Coliseum in Carrollton, Georgia. Last time the two teams faced off, UTA won in five sets. <\/p>\n
Both games will be streamed on ESPN+. <\/p>\n
