Well, this one is overdue. That's my bad. Pitt Volleyball's All-Freshman Sophomore MB Ryla Jones joins the show to talk about the team in their offseason & what it's like to be the big dogs on campus. We had an audio issue at the end - only the outro was affected. Have fun listening.

Find Ryla on Instagram here.
