Another two goal performance from freshman Jordan Calhoun lifted the Frogs to their second victory in as many games. Calhoun's first goal came unassisted in the 17th minute beginning the Frog's scoring. She netted her second goal with two seconds remaining in the half off a hard return header into the box from freshman Alex Mechalske. A swift chip into the bottom left corner put the Frogs up 2-0 going into the half.

In a non-conference match in the Nike/Molten Invitational, the Horned Frogs utilized a strong front row attack and accurate passing to sweep the Lady Techsters 25-18, 25-21, 25-15 and open the season with a win.
