LARAMIE – Kaylee Prigge knew that if she rebuilds it, they will come.

What she wasn’t sure about was drawing a crowd for her debut as the head coach of Wyoming volleyball.

Prigge was pleasantly surprised when 722 fans showed up for the Cowgirls’ opener against Furman, a match that began at noon last Friday.

A total of 2,839 paying customers created a raucous atmosphere in the UniWyo Sports Complex during UW’s fast 3-0 start to the season.
