Commerce, Texas- A&M-Commerce (6-3) opens up conference play Friday, September 18 in a pivitol matchup against West Texas A&M (4-4) on the road in Canyon, Texas.
 
The Lions are coming off of an impressive showing at The South Central Classic in Ada, Oklahoma and Durant, Oklahoma. The ladies ended the weekend with a 3-1 record including back-to-back comeback performances to win both matches on Saturday, September 12.
 
After this weekend, Sydney Reyes leads the Lone Star Conference with a hitting percentage of .359. Layne Little (117) and Taryn Driver (108) both eclipsed the 100-kill mark for the 2015 season and are in the Top 10 of the LSC in total kills ranking sixth and seventh. Sophomore Courtney Tate is currently ranked second in the LSC with 383 assists and also tied for fifth in service aces with ten. Despite having more attack errors, service errors, and receiving errors when being compared to our opponents, the Lions have shown early that they are capable of overcoming their mistakes to rally and win even if they are on the road. However, West Texas will still be a test for the young Lions and serves as a great kickoff into LSC competition.
