Emma Gasman had 10 blocks in the Raiders’ victory against Westmont and 12 more in SOU’s win against Vanguard (ranked 18th in the nation). Her offense wasn’t bad either as she had 32 kills over the weekend.
The Raiders Volleyball Team will have their first home match next week (9/4/14).

Once upon a time, less than a year ago, my photos that showed up on souraiders.com were frequently too small to see and/or cropped in such a way that balls and heads were cut off. The new Raiders site is much improved, with bigger photos, and less cropping. The photo of today’s soccer game was cropped a bit. This is mostly my fault for not cropping it to fit on the SOU site correctly, but I wanted to give you the full photo in case you are interested.

School doesn’t begin for another six weeks, but sports begin much earlier than classes. SOU’s new soccer field is not yet ready so this weekend’s tournament (featuring Marymount California University, Concordia, and The Master’s College in addition to SOU) will be held at the U.S. Cellular soccer fields in Medford.
SOU plays at 2:30 on Saturday (8/23/14) and 11 on Monday (8/25/14). Tickets are available here.

Southern Oregon University began a new tradition at graduation last weekend. Alumni from the class that graduated 50 years before are invited to come back and walk again. So this year the Class of 1964 could be seen wearing gold and leading the Class of 2014 down the aisle of faculty in Raider Stadium.

Dozens of Japanese students from Osaka have been coming to Ashland for the past ten years to learn about sports medicine from SOU trainers and others in the Rogue Valley. Today departing President Mary Cullinan commemorated the event on the SOU campus by planting a Japanese maple.
