Key Stats for Clarkson (1-0): With such a young team, watching players reach certain career milestones this year will be a rarity, though junior Olivia Baxter is on her way. To qualify for Clarkson's all-time leaderboards, 200 sets is required, with Baxter having just hit 191. Assuming she plays nine sets this weekend, Baxter will push her way into the all-time Clarkson marks for digs per set and aces per set. She currently would be sixth all-time in digs per set and is one of only two players with a career mark above 0.6 in aces per set.

Key Stats for Cobleskill (0-1): The Tigers lost their first match of the season but had some bright spots from solid returners. JoJo Haycock recorded four aces and had 17 digs after averaging 2.45 digs per set a year ago. Baylee Kirschberg posted 12 assists (3.22 aps in 2025) and Emma Hinze added eight kills. Hinze averaged 2.33 kills per set last season.

Key Stats for Brockport (0-0): The Golden Eagles are opening up their season this weekend with matches on Friday before coming to Clarkson on Saturday for two more. Brockport has a few solid returning hitters in Madisen Jones and Luba Butcher. Jones averaged 2.69 kills per set last year, doing so effectively with a .260 hitting percentage, while Butcher averaged 2.06 kills per set.

Key Stats for Middlebury (0-0): The Panthers are also opening up the 2026 campaign this weekend, playing all of their matches on Clarkson's floor on Saturday and Sunday. All-NESCAC First-Team standout Molly Harrison returns after averaging 3.34 kills per set a year ago, while Gabby Pribisich (2.19 kps, .293 hitting percentage), and Molly MacDonald (1.99 kps) also add to the offense. Campbell Bartley ran the offense with 9.58 assists a year ago and Annabella Rando was a top libero in the NESCAC in 2025 with 4.40 digs per set.
