Four players left the Ball State University women's volleyball team for undisclosed reasons.
Junior Christine Kennedy, sophomore Cassie Conner, freshman Abby LaVigne and freshman Katie Gallagher will not return to the team for the 2008 season, first-year coach Dave Boos said in a press release Monday.
"At the conclusion of the season, the Ball State women's volleyball program underwent some roster changes," Boos said in the press release. "This is a natural process with a new coach, culture and expectation level. We wish the players who are no longer with the program the best of luck in their future endeavors. The staff and current team are working hard this spring to prepare for a successful 2008 season."
Boos declined to comment about why the women left the team.
Conner also declined to comment about why she left the Cardinals.
"I'm no longer on the team and I'm looking to play for another university," she said.
Kennedy, Gallagher and LaVigne could not be reached for comment.
Kennedy played in 103 games and all 30 matches last season. She led the team with 104 blocks. She was fourth on the team with 211 kills and second on the team with a .170 attacking percentage. She was also second on the team with 274 digs, third with 103 points and fourth with 103 sets.
LaVigne played in 86 games in 28 matches last year. She had the fifth-most kills on the team with 127 and a .032 attacking percentage.
