As it prepares for the 2025 season, Purdue volleyball has put together five matches it will play on four different dates during the spring season. It will give fans an early opportunity to catch the Boilermakers in action prior to the fall regular season, which begins in August.

Coach Dave Shondell and the Boilermakers will play Butler, Loyola Chicago, Miami (Ohio), Vanderbilt and Ball State this spring. The first match is scheduled for March 26 (vs. Butler) and the final match will take place April 15 (at Ball State).

"We've designed a spring schedule that will offer our loyal fans the opportunity to see our new squad compete on four dates this spring - all within the Boilermaker State," Shondell said. "After training with our team the past few weeks, I'm convinced our fans will embrace this next chapter of Purdue Volleyball."
