TROY, Ala. – After two consecutive weekends on the road, the Trojans return to the friendly confines of Trojan Arena Tuesday night to play Alabama State at 6 pm.
Troy (4-4) is looking to make it back-to-back wins for the second time this season as they face an Alabama St. (0-9) squad looking for their first win of the season.
"We are excited to be back in Trojan Arena," head coach Josh Lauer said. "Even though it is a quick turnaround, playing at home in front of our fans will be a great boost to help us finish off this last week of non-conference play."

Julia Brooks has a .359 hitting percentage which puts her second among all players in the Sun Belt, and she is seventh in kills with 3.10 kills per set.
