LINCOLN UNIVERSITY, PA. – August 27, 2025 – The Lincoln University (PA) women's volleyball program is gearing up for an exciting 2025 campaign as the Lions look to continue building momentum and establishing themselves within the CIAA. With a mix of talented returners and fresh faces, Head Coach Raheem and his staff are eager to see the team's growth translate on the court this fall.

"Looking forward to the continued growth of the Lions volleyball program. Last year's record does not reflect the hard work the athletes put in on and off the court to sharpen their volleyball skills and personal development," said Coach Raheem. "During the offseason we had a big focus on ball control, tuning up our mechanics and lots of defensive/offensive footwork patterns. Players had a great opportunity to really build a strong foundational block to build on over the summer and implement this upcoming fall. I'm really looking forward to seeing how the returners set the tone for the team standard and culture for LU volleyball."

Players to Watch

  • Charly Manley (Upper Marlboro, MD/Frederick Douglass HS) (Jr., OH): After transitioning roles her first two seasons, Charly enters 2025 poised for a breakout year. She's sharpened her shot selection and passing, and is expected to anchor the Lions' offense on the outside.

  • Elise Carter (Smyrna, DE/Smyrna HS) (So., MB): Coming off a stellar freshman year, Elise brings power and speed to the front row. Her fast arm swing and quick footwork make her a dangerous threat at the net.

  • Ashley Fru (Fr., Setter): A dynamic newcomer, Ashley joins Lincoln with a proven track record as a leader on her high school and club teams. Her ability to run the offense will be key in her first season.

  • Donavyn Morris (Fr., DS/L): A defensive spark in the back row, Donavyn arrives with great instincts, quick reads, and highlight-reel saves that will energize the Lions on defense.

Key Games to Watch

  • Sept. 15 vs. Felician (Oxford, PA) – First home contest of the season as the Lions look to make an early statement.

  • Sept. 25 vs. Bluefield State (Oxford HS, Oxford, PA) – Lincoln's CIAA home opener, a pivotal matchup to set the tone in conference play.

  • Oct. 9 vs. Elizabeth City State (Oxford, PA) – A big CIAA North showdown in front of the home crowd.

  • Oct. 23 vs. Virginia State (Oxford, PA) – Late-season test against a conference rival with potential postseason implications.

  • Nov. 3 vs. Virginia Union (Oxford, PA) – Another important CIAA North Division matchup as the Lions push toward the finish of conference play.
