LEXINGTON, K.Y. (LEX 18) — Following a win in the first SEC Tournament held in 2005, Kentucky Volleyball set its sights on the biggest prize of them all; a national championship banner. Sunday evening, the Wildcats learned that quest starts right at home.
Kentucky earned the number two overall seed in the NCAA Tournament, and is a host site for one of four regions. The Wildcats open on Thursday against Wofford at 7 p.m. at Historic Memorial Coliseum. The Terriers have gone 17-13 to this point, and brought home a Southern Conference Tournament championship to earn a bid into the 64 team field.
