My best friend and I throw around the term “banana” all the time.

Freshman outside hitter Caroline Furrer has wasted no time emerging as a star for Penn volleyball. The Texas native ranks fourth in the Ivy League in kills and sixth in digs through three games, helping her team get out to a 2-1 start in conference play.

Coming off a sweep in the first Ivy doubleheader of the year, Penn volleyball will hit the road over fall break and take on Cornell and Columbia. The Quakers (7-8, 2-1 Ivy) carry momentum into the weekend after wins over Harvard and Dartmouth, but they'll face two hungry teams in New York, with the Big Red (5-7, 0-3) desperate for their first conference win and the Lions (8-5, 3-0) looking to stay undefeated in league play.
