FRANKLIN, Ind. – Senior setter Billie Jarrett joined rarified air on Tuesday (Sept. 20) night, becoming the latest Grizzly to record 2,000 career assists as part of Franklin's matchup with St. Mary of the Woods.
 
The Speedway, Ind.-native finished the night with 38 assists, becoming the first Grizzly since Ashley Bazier in 2015 to reach 2,000 for her career. Franklin (5-7) would fall in four sets to the Pomeroys (14-0) in four sets, 25-20, 15-25, 25-21, 25-22.
