Taking a Quick Time Out from Previews for a Wisconsin Connection

We took a break from our first division three preview (it'll show up later today, maybe as late as the afternoon) and googled up this Ball State season preview, which just so happens to contain some nice words about redshirt freshman Andrea Felton (New Berlin Eisenhower '08).

Of course (and we say of course even though someone had to point it out in the comments below), the Wisconsin connections at Ball State also include head coach Dave Boos (UW-Oshkosh '98) and assistant Hugh Hernesman (UW-Whitewater '00), both of whom are in the Wisconsin Volleyball Conference Hall of Fame.

And let's not forget Menomonee Falls senior Catie Fredrich, a Ball State recruit.

Or all the past and present Ball State men's players with Wisconsin connection, such Ethan Pheister (Shorewood '06) and Eric Schulte (Shorewood '06). OK, we're done now.

Not too mention that Head Coach Dave Boos and Assistant Coach Hugh Hernesman are both Wisconsin boys as well. Boos went to Oshkosh and Hernesman went to Whitewater and both are members of the Wisconsin Volleyball Conference hall of fame.

Eric and Ethan both graduated from Shorewood together in the same year

It's been said over over another place that Ball State is the cradle of volleyball coaches. Now we know where the cradle of Ball State volleyball is - WI.
