Oklahoma Wesleyan women's volleyball is just under a month away from returning to the court in 2025.

The Lady Eagles have won the last two Kansas Collegiate Athletic Conference championships, with a trip to the final site of the NAIA national tournament in 2023. Last year, OKWU went 31-4, 12-1 in conference play and a perfect 16-0 record at home.

Head coach Tracie Gillette said her group is hungry and humble.

OKWU has two scrimmages in Bartlesville against Mid-America Christian University on Aug. 13 and Cowley County Community College on Aug. 19. The first official home match of the regular season is Sep. 3 against Southwestern Christian.

The Lady Eagles open 2025 in Sioux City, Iowa, for a two-day tournament, followed by the Corban University Classic in Salem, Oregon.

Gillette said her group isn't shying away from tough competition.
