Shockers drop first match of the season to Kansas

The Wichita State volleyball program lost its first match of the season on Friday, falling to the Kansas Jayhawks in three sets in the second game of the Kansas Invitational.

The Shockers were able to make late runs in the first two sets but KU was able to withstand them, winning 25-22 and 25-20. The Jayhawks were dominant in the third set to pick up the sweep, 25-16.

WSU was once again limited to 12 of its 18 players one week after withdrawing from the SD Invite due “COVID-19 related issues”.

Lamb said that a key thing he would be watching for in the match against KU was the fight his team would should, despite being shorthanded.
