GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) ---The Green Bay volleyball team (17-7, 9-3 HL) will matchup against Youngstown State and IUPUI this upcoming weekend.

Friday night's match with the Penguins will feature Parents Night / Youth Team Night at the Kress Center.  Post-match autographs will be available for the youth.

Sunday's match against the Jaguars will be on the road in Indianapolis, Indiana, but will be live-streamed on ESPN+.  The link for viewing is available on the Green Bay volleyball schedule page.

A Closer Look at Youngstown State:  The Penguins are currently 8-17 on the season and 2-10 in Horizon League action so far.  The squad is currently on a five-game skid and were swept last weekend by both Cleveland State and Oakland.  Nonetheless, the danger up front is sophomore Brooklen Pe'a, who leads the team in kills with 223, which is good for ninth overall in the conference.  Green Bay swept Youngstown State on the road earlier this season.

A Closer Look at IUPUI:  The Jaguars are 6-19 overall and 2-10 in conference play as well on the season.  The team lost both matches last weekend, but took UIC to five sets while also taking a set away from league-leading Milwaukee also.  Senior McKayla Wright leads IUPUI in kills with 193, while sophomore Rachel Hickey leads them in digs defensively with 354.  When these two teams faced off a few weeks back, the Phoenix won in five sets.

Matchup Information:  Friday (November 8th) vs. Youngstown State 6:00 p.m. CT // Sunday (November 10th) at IUPUI 1:00 p.m. CT
