WOMEN'S SPORTS ARE READY FOR ACTION
Towson State's Women’s fall sports teams, field hockey and volleyball, are set
to begin their respective seasons and if past performances are any indicator, Towson

had defeated Notre Dame College, Coppin State, UMBC, and Salisbury State before falling
to the Terps in the finals. The field hockey team is coming off last year’s Baltimore

Harford C.C., Frostburg II and Frostburg 1 to earn the crown.
This season's volleyball squad opens at home with games against UMES (Sept. 3),

with a round-robin tournament Sept. 26-27 at Mt. Washington College. The first home
contest is scheduled for Sept. 30 with West Chester State.
