Western Kentucky's volleyball season came to an abrupt end Sunday.
The previously unbeaten 18th-ranked Lady Toppers were swept 3-0 (25-20, 25-16, 25-10) by No. 2 Kentucky in the NCAA Volleyball Tournament Sweet 16 in Omaha, Neb.
"Well, obviously a really disappointing end to our season. Certainly not the match we wanted to play. It was a bad night to have a bad night, I guess you would say," WKU coach Travis Hudson said. "Look, you pair that with the fact that we played an awfully, awfully good team in Kentucky. They are championship caliber, and I think they have a chance to continue to go deeper in this tournament and win the whole thing.
