JACKSON - The Millsaps Majors volleyball team will be celebrating their 20th anniversary of varsity play this season as they prepare to make a run for a Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference Championship. On Friday, October 28, 2011, Millsaps will take on Howard Payne University in the 20th Anniversary Game.

The game, which falls on Homecoming weekend, is set for a 7:30 p.m. start time and all alumni, students, family and friends are encouraged to attend. Players of the past will be recognized for their contributions to the program.

The Majors are coming off a 21-18 year a season ago and a sixth place finish in the conference. Though Millsaps loses seven seniors, they return key players such as senior Maggie Tumminello and juniors Kasey Laird, Raven Scott, and Sarah Zito. The Majors also welcome in six newcomers who look to make an impact immediately.
