No. 23 Baylor volleyball fell in three sets to No. 2 seed Kentucky Friday night in the Rupp Arena in Lexington, Ky. The loss marked the first time since 2018 that head coach Ryan McGuyre’s team failed to reach at least the Sweet 16.
The Bears hit .258 to the Wildcats’ .500, and Kentucky had 20 more digs than Baylor (36 to 16). Bears junior outside hitter Elise McGhee led the team with 15 kills on a .343 hitting percentage. McGhee was the only Baylor player with double-digit kills, and she hit that mark in 15 of the last 16 contests.
