Pitt lost three-year starter and two-time All-ACC honoree libero/defensive specialist Emmy Klika to graduation following the end of this season.

The Panthers have two returning liberos/defensive specialists in rising senior Dillyn Griffin and rising sophomore Mallorie Meyer. Both players were serve specialists and came on sparingly, while Klika played the majority of matches.

Dupes will compete with both Griffin and Meyer for the starting spot next season at Pitt.

Panthers associate head coach/recruiting coordinator Kellen Petrone recently announced two "Pitt is It" commitments on Twitter, with one still unaccounted for.

Pitt finished their 2024 season 33-2 overall, 19-1 in the ACC, winning the conference title outright. They also made the Final Four for the fourth straight season, before losing to rival Louisville.
