After cruising through the Lexington Regional having lost one single set in four matches — UCLA threw a jab back in the Round of 32 — Kentucky Volleyball finally got tested on the sport’s biggest stage in Kansas City at the Final Four. Taking on No. 3 seed Wisconsin for a spot in the national championship, the Wildcats got absolutely smashed in the opening set 25-12 to fall behind early with the fewest points scored in a single set all season, then dropped the third set to force a win-or-go-home fourth at 2-1 overall. That one was a heavyweight battle of back-and-forth haymakers, leading to a 24-24 tie, only to see Craig Skinner’s group throw two straight to win 26-24 and force a fifth and final set.
