The Boston College volleyball team will welcome back former players this weekend, starting with Friday evening's 5 pm contest with Clemson at Power Gym.

Following the completion of the second set, a short ceremony will take place to honor the alumni on hand for the game.

The Eagles will go for their first ACC win of the season against Clemson, and then return to action on Sunday at 1 pm against Georgia Tech. BC last beat both the Tigers and the Yellow Jackets in the same season in 2006.

Clemson, the defending conference champion, enters the game having won five games in a row, all ACC contests. With a 5-2 record in the conference, the Tigers are tied for second in ACC with Miami.

Georgia Tech sits in a tie for fourth place in the conference and will face Maryland on Friday before traveling up to Chestnut Hill to face the Eagles.
