Junior setter Caryn Mastandrea is now a former member of the women's volleyball team. Mastandrea was suspended late in the 2008 season, along with senior Ashlee Fisher, for what athletic director Steve Cottingham called "team reasons".

"Caryn's status is that she will no longer be with the program," new coach Bond Shymansky said.

Mastandrea averaged a team-best 8.89 assists per set in 2008.
