Gathered in head coach Ryan McGuyre’s living room and surrounded by friends and family, Baylor volleyball received an early Christmas present. For the first time in program history, Baylor volleyball will host the first two rounds of the NCAA Tournament at the Ferrell Center.

The Bears, who finished their regular season 23-6 and second in the Big 12 conference, earned the No. 12 overall seed in the tournament.

McGuyre, who hosted the watch party that included a bonfire, worship and a time of fellowship said he was pleased with the seed and the ability to host, but was more excited to share the accomplishment with his team.
