QUICK NOTES
- The Gators are 36-14 all-time vs. members in the current alignment of the Big 12 Conference, including a 32-9 mark under the direction of head coach Mary Wise. Iowa State will be first Big 12 team that Florida will face since defeating Colorado, 3-0, on Aug. 29, 2009.
- The 2010 campaign will mark the 27th season of Florida volleyball (beginning 1984). The Gators are 759-167 (.820) all-time in program history and 18-8 all-time in season openers.
- Florida’s 603 wins since 1991 are the most of any team in the nation during that time period.
- Junior right-side/setter Kelly Murphy has recorded 15 career triple-doubles, which goes down as the most in Florida school history. She also currently ranks 10th all-time in school history in career assists with 1,370, an impressive feat considering she has spent most of her career splitting time in the setter role as part of a 6-2 offensive scheme.
- Murphy and junior outside hitter Kristy Jaeckel each were named to the SEC Preseason Team. Both were first-team All-SEC selections in 2009.
- Senior Erin Fleming will assume the libero position in 2010. Fleming will look to fill the shoes of the SEC’s all-time career digs leader, Elyse Cusack (2,138 digs), who completed her eligibility last year.
