WICHITA, Kan. – Wichita State volleyball will host its 13th-annual Volleyball Dinner and Auction on Saturday, Aug. 13, presented by B&C Barbeque.
 
The dinner will begin at 5:30 p.m. in the Aetna Multi-Purpose Facility in Charles Koch Arena.

Over the last 12 years, 400-500 supporters annually attend the Shocker Volleyball Dinner and Auction. The evening includes silent and live auctions, a cupcake bar "chance to win," volleyball demonstrations, Black and Yellow scrimmage and the "Diamond Dig." The money raised over the course of the evening helps the volleyball program purchase training equipment and attend competitive tournaments in the spring and fall seasons. 
 
Head coach Chris Lamb returns more than 90% of the kills, blocks, and assists from last year's club, which went 19-10 despite a youthful roster that included 18 freshmen and sophomores. All-Conference selections Natalie Foster, Brylee Kelly and Kayce Litzau highlight the returners, while talented young middles Lauren McMahon and Morgan Stout join Foster up front and Sophia Rohling, Morgan Weber and Sophie Childs provide firepower on the pins. Defensive specialists Lily Liekweg, Lara Uyar, Annalie Heliste and Kylie Marneris solidify the back row.
