Redshirt freshman Katrina Lindner tore her ACL in last year's Red-Blue Game, effectively ending her promising first season as a Wildcat.

Head coach Joan Bonvicini said losing Lindner for the season was a tremendous blow last year. [Read article]

Jolivette hurt his knee three days before the Sept. 21 Wisconsin game and has not seen the field since. [Read article]

"It's disappointing we didn't win the tournament, but at the same time it feels great that we got one of 16 bids to the nationals, out of a possible 150 teams," junior Mychal Sierra said. "It was a tough weekend. Everyone contributed and our bench came up big for us." [Read article]
