MURFREESBORO, Tenn. – The Blue Raiders are heading west for two matches against ranked opponents, No. 28 Pepperdine and No. 7 San Diego.
Middle Tennessee had a short break after its Northeast trip to face Princeton and Harvard nearly a week and a half ago. The Blue Raiders fell short in both matches but are looking to make a statement on the West Coast.
Battling the Waves
Wednesday's match will mark the first-ever meeting between Middle Tennessee and Pepperdine. The Waves are a strong team looking to break back into the top 25, with wins over Arizona State, Texas A&M, and Vanderbilt defeating the Commodores 5-1 this past Sunday.
