Scouting The Pirates
Hampton enters at 1-17, 0-8 in search of their first CAA win. The Pirates lone win came on Sept. 6 against Le Moyne. Racquel Frazier leads the offense with 2.64 kills/set, while two Pirates split defensive duties and both lead with 2.10 digs/set. 

Series History
The Camels are 15-0 all-time against Hampton, including 5-0 as league foes spanning both the Big South and CAA. Hampton tested the Camels last season, forcing a fifth set that Campbell ultimately escaped with a 17-15 win to maintain the unblemished record against the Pirates. 

Last Time Out
Campbell swept the weekend at UNCW, downing the Seahawks 3-1 and 3-0. Campbell put away 68 kills in Friday night's match, the most in a match this season. The sweep marks the first over UNCW since CU joined the CAA, having split the series the previous two seasons.

Player of the Week
Gwen Wolkow was tabbed CAA Player of the Week for the second time this season after a standout performance at UNCW. The senior logged four single-match career highs and reached the 1000 career kill mark over the weekend. 

Wolkow is the only player in the CAA to have earned Player of the Week twice so far this season, and the first Camel to do so in a season since Sarah Colla in 2019. 

Looking Ahead 
Campbell travels north to face Stony Brook on Oct. 24-25. Friday's action begins at 3pm, with Saturday's match slated for 1pm.
