RUSTON – Louisiana Tech Volleyball head coach Scott Mattera unveiled the Bulldogs' spring schedule Wednesday, continuing the team's offseason training.
 
The first spring scrimmage is set for Saturday, April 11 as LA Tech will host a round robin against Northwestern State, Ouachita Baptist, and Mississippi College inside the Thomas Assembly Center.
 
It will be side-by-side courts with the first matches starting at 11 a.m. CT.  The event is free and open to the public.
 
Next is a trip to Commerce, Texas to play at East Texas A&M as well as a neutral site contest versus UT Arlington on Saturday April 18 starting at 11 a.m. CT.  The spring training period will then wrap up on Thursday, April 23 with a community event at the Ruston Sports Complex featuring a matchup versus Grambling State followed immediately by a free clinic for kids in 3rd-7th grade.
 
The open practice/scrimmage against the Lady Tigers will be from 6-7:30 p.m. CT with the clinic running from 7:30-8:30 p.m. CT.
 
"We are really proud of the work we put in last year on and off the court," said Mattera.  "We have seen significant improvements in all areas – most importantly in our cultural foundation as evidenced by our massive team GPA increase.  We have got a great group of returners and a couple of really talented freshmen joining us for the spring and then the rest of the 2026 class will join us in the fall."
 
The Bulldogs are carrying a roster of 12 in the spring quarter offseason training with 10 returners and two early enrolled freshmen.
