SAN ANGELO, Texas – A three-match road trip ends for Texas A&M University-Kingsville's (17-10, 9-6 LSC) in a pivotal match against No. 23 Angelo State University (16-8, 8-7 LSC) at the Junell Center on Halloween night at 7 p.m.  
 
Despite being ranked the No. 23 team in Division II volleyball, the Rambelles finds themselves behind the Javelinas in the Lone Star Conference standings.

Madison Brabham leads a trio of 200-plus kill athletes with 273 and averages 2.81 kills per set. Krystal Faison is right behind her with 267 kills and leads the club with 41 aces. Middle Lexi Wick has 241 kills, a team-high .310 hitting percentage, 86 blocks and 24 aces in 2017. Haley Hutchinson has 157 kills and leads the team with 100 blocks, including 21 solo blocks. Freshman Shelby Sheets is nearby with 152 kills and Gabby Atchley has 120 kills and 15 aces. Casey Klobedans directs the offense with 9.84 assists per set, while Jasmine Jacinto leads the team with 4.05 digs per set.

Anna Graham is next with 186 kills followed by Sundara Chinn who has 168 kills and ties Sotello with 38 blocks.
