Chris Lamb walked into the interview room after Wichita State's final volleyball match with a smile and a "We did it."
Did what?
The Shockers did a lot in 2021, a season that put the proud program back on track. Wichita State went 19-10 overall and 13-7 in the American Athletic Conference, both its best marks since 2017. What most impressed Lamb is his team's ability to compete with the top teams in the conference despite a rotation featuring one senior.
"It was a joy to play this year," outside hitter Brylee Kelly said.
