Georgia Southern continues its eight-match homestand with a non-conference match-up against Savannah State Tuesday. The Eagles will sign autographs following the match.

The Eagles are 9-0 all-time against the Tigers and won the last meeting 3-0 in Hanner Fieldhouse in 2012.

The homestand includes Sun Belt Conference contests against defending league champion Little Rock and ULM this weekend. Georgia Southern will sign autographs following Friday's match against Little Rock as well.

Georgia Southern went 1-2 in its home tournament last week.

Megan Chevalier was named all-tournament after tallying a career high and matching the Sun Belt high this season with 27 kills in the Eagles' win over Chicago State. The total was five shy of the school record for kills in a 4-set match. The sophomore averaged 4.17 kills (50 total) and hit .433 for the week with just 11 errors in 90 swings.

Alex Beecher averaged 5.50 digs per set last week and collected 28 digs against Tennessee State and 20 vs. Winthrop. The total against the Tigers was the seventh most digs in a match by a Sun Belt student-athlete this season. It was the 25th and 26th time she has posted 20-plus digs in a match in her career, and the junior is now 349 digs shy of the Georgia Southern career record.

Setter Kat Minnerly ranks fifth on the school's career assist list, 759 shy of third. The senior played in her 100th career match against Chicago State.

Junior Crysten Curry ranks eighth in career blocks at Georgia Southern with 258. She matched her season high with seven against Winthrop.

Three juniors who received medical redshirts last season - Beecher, Curry and Katie Bange - have returned to the lineup this season.

New this year - season passes for volleyball now earn Eagle fans priority points. Adult passes are available for $20 and youth passes are only $10. Volleyball season passes grant access to all thirteen home matches for a savings of over 65 percent when compared to purchasing single-game tickets.

Georgia Southern will host the Sun Belt Conference Tournament in Hanner Fieldhouse Sept. 20-22. The top-8 teams will battle for the league's automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament. It's the first time the Eagles are hosting their conference tournament since 2005, when Georgia Southern hosted the Southern Conference Championship in Hanner.
