Lady Toppers to host UAB and MTSU for season opener

WKU Volleyball announced Wednesday it’s 2020-21 season opener against Alabama-Birmingham.

The match will take place Saturday, Nov. 7, with the first serve against the Blazers slated for 11 a.m. CT.

The match will count towards both teams’ records but not as a conference tilt, according to an email sent Wednesday by Jessica Leifheit, Associate Director of Communications/Media Relations for WKU Volleyball.

The team was forced to reschedule their original season opener, against Mercer, which was scheduled for Oct. 2, but canceled due to COVID-19 concerns.

The WKU versus UAB match will not be open to the public, but fans are able to stream the match for free on the Hilltopper Sports Satelitte Network’s, or HSSN’s, Facebook page.
