• Georgia Southern finishes off the regular season at home against Troy (Friday) and South Alabama (Saturday). Saturday is Senior Night, and Georgia Southern will honor seniors Madison Brown, Maddie Bryant, Haley Fuller, Hannah McGlockton, Madi Ruble and Christina Walton prior to the match. 

• The Eagles enter the weekend tied for third in the Sun Belt East Division standings with Troy. GS can finish as high as third by winning out, defeating Troy and Troy losing out or by defeating Troy in three or four sets. South Alabama has won the East Division and will be the top seed from the East in next week's Sun Belt Championships, which begin Thursday in Foley, Alabama. 

• Georgia Southern is coming off two wins last weekend, topping Coastal Carolina 3-2 and Appalachian State 3-1. Troy and South Alabama each played one match last week - against each other - and the Jags won 3-0 in Mobile.

• The Eagles lead the all-time series against Troy 14-7 and have won three of the last four. GS is 8-2  against Troy in Hanner Fieldhouse.

• Georgia Southern trails the all-time series against South Alabama 11-7 and has lost the last seven. The Eagles are 4-4 against the Jags in Hanner.

• Madison Brown has been named the Sun Belt Conference Setter of the Week after averaging 9.78 assists, 2.0 digs and an ace per set for the Eagles. The senior totaled 46 assists, 11 digs and three aces in the comeback win at Costal Carolina. The victory broke the Eagles' 13-game losing skid against the Chanticleers that spanned back to 2009 and ended a 10-match home winning streak for Coastal Carolina. She backed up that performance with 42 assists, seven digs and a career-high six service aces in the win at Appalachian State.

• Brown moved into fifth place on the Georgia Southern all-time assist list with 2,835. She is tied for the league lead in aces (0.50/set) and ranks fourth in assists (9.29). She earns Setter of the Week honors for the third time in her career and is the third Eagle to win a Sun Belt weekly award this season. Freshman Ashlyn Lovett has been named Defensive Player of the Week twice (Sept. 28 and Oct. 26), and sophomore Grace Slader was named Setter of the Week in Oct. 12.

• Lovett ranks seventh in the league in digs (4.04/set), and Slader ranks fifth in the Sun Belt in assists (8.70/set) and third in aces (0.38/set).

• The Eagles rank fifth in the Sun Belt in hitting percentage (.216), sixth in blocks (2.12/set) and sixth in aces (1.48/set).

• Baylor Bumford ranks second in the Sun Belt in hitting percentage (.359).

• Senior Maddie Bryant notched 10 kills vs. Arkansas State Oct. 23 to reach 600 for her career. She now has 637 kills, 560 digs and 140 blocks.

• The Eagles' 15 wins so far this season are the most since Georgia Southern went 15-18 in 2016. Their 10 home wins are the most since 2013, when GS went 13-2 in Hanner Fieldhouse.
