For the first time since 2017, Wichita State volleyball is headed to the NCAA Tournament.
WSU defeated sixth-seeded Florida Atlantic University (FAU) on Sunday afternoon to win the AAC Tournament (25-22), (25-19), (25-19). The Shockers swept through the tournament, winning all three games in three sets.
Until Sunday, Wichita State has never won or competed in the AAC Tournament, which hasn’t been held since the 2020 season. This year’s edition was hosted in Charles Koch Arena.
In the weeks leading up to the weekend series against the University of Tulsa that kicked off November, WSU head coach Chris Lamb said he was nervous about the team even making it to the AAC Tournament, let alone the NCAA Tournament.
