In women's volleyball, head coach CJ Werneke has unveiled the 2026 recruiting class, which includes nine new players set to join the Maroon and White this fall. This influx of talent aims to bolster the team's competitiveness in the Patriot League, as Werneke continues to build a program capable of contending for championships. The new recruits are expected to bring a mix of skills and athleticism that will enhance the team's depth and performance.
Meanwhile, the Lafayette men's basketball program has strengthened its coaching staff with the addition of Muhamadou Kaba as an assistant coach for the upcoming 2026-27 season. Kaba arrives after a successful tenure at Delaware Valley, where he led the program to a league championship and an NCAA Tournament appearance. His experience and accolades, including being named the MAC Freedom Coach of the Year, suggest he will be a valuable asset in developing the Leopards' student-athletes and enhancing the team's competitive edge. Kaba's appointment is part of head coach Mike McGarvey's efforts to elevate the program's profile within the Patriot League and beyond.
