volleyball in his first season at the helm, leading
the Salukis to their first 20-win season since 2002,
including a trip to the 2012 Missouri Valley Conference

All-American.
The Salukis kicked off their banner season with a

losing streak against Creighton on Sep. 28 and were
the only Valley team to defeat the Bluejays during the
2012 season.
Under Ingram’s direction, SIU finished the 2012
season ranked second in the MVC in blocks, third in
assists, and fourth in hitting percentage. Senior Bailey
Yeager broke the single-season digs record, recording
a total of 630 digs. Sophomore setter Amy Drabant
recorded 1,178 assists to rank 10th all-time in assists
in a single season and senior Laura Thole recorded
1,212 attempts to rank second all-time in a single
season.
