BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – Indiana's 2025 roster will get its first taste of a competitive match on Saturday (Aug. 23) afternoon at Wilkinson Hall. The Hoosiers will break into two teams for their annual Cream and Crimson Scrimmage. The sides are set to play three sets against each other.
Eighth-year head coach Steve Aird has assembled one of the deepest and most talented teams that he's ever had while leading a Big Ten program. Between a returning core of veterans and the program's best recruiting class ever, Aird has a number of options to pick from at each position.
IU's fantastic freshman class will get the chance to play in front of the Wilkinson Hall crowd for the first time on Saturday afternoon. Outside hitters Charlotte Vinson and Jaidyn Jager, middle blocker Victoria Gray and defensive specialist Avery Freeman were all top-100 recruits and have been committed to the program since 2023.
On top of the intrasquad scrimmage, the Hoosiers will have a DJ on hand to keep the environment lively for all fans in attendance. IU will provide giveaways for students and fans and will have all 17 student-athletes available to sign autographs at the end of the match.
The Hoosiers begin the regular campaign on Friday (Aug. 29) in Coral Gables. IU will play a perennial NCAA Tournament team, Miami (Fla.), for the third-consecutive season. The home slate begins on Thursday, September 4th against SEMO. Single game tickets for all three matches of the Indiana Invitational are still available.
