Some may associate volleyball with ice cream cones, beaches and searing summer weather. The folks at the Student Recreation Center emphatically do not.

You can check out equipment at the Pro Shop. Play some ball, by George, and laugh at the folks in New York while you do it! Details are available by calling the Recreation Center at 621-4709.
