No. 23-ranked Lady Toppers pick up 3-0 sweep over Miners

Western Kentucky's volleyball team added to its dominant 2019 season with the squad’s NCAA-best 18th sweep of the season Friday night over UTEP at E.A. Diddle Arena.

With the 3-0 (25-13, 25-19, 25-17) win, the No. 23 Lady Toppers secured their 20th-straight victory while pushing their sets-won streak to 21 for the first time since 2017. WKU’s high-powered offense operated at a .397 hitting clip, while Paige Briggs and Lauren Matthews contributed double-digit kills.

“Obviously, we're on a pretty good winning streak right now, and so to me it's about staying sharp and being our best as the season winds down,” WKU coach Travis Hudson said in a news release.
