Western Kentucky has no shortage of individual talent this season. Now the Lady Toppers will try to put that together toward another NCAA Tournament berth.
WKU brings back 10 letter winners and five starters from a 2016 team that went 30-3, swept Conference USA regular-season and tournament titles and made the program’s 10th NCAA Tournament appearance.
Throw in Sydney Engle – a player coach Travis Hudson called “the best volleyball player we have” – key returners like Taylor Dellinger and Amara Listenbee and a strong recruiting class.
The Lady Toppers start their season at 10:30 a.
