ATHENS, Ohio – WKU Volleyball kicked off the 2016 campaign with a four-set victory over the Ohio Bobcats at the Bobcat Invitational with a balanced effort across the board.

After a back and forth opening set, the Lady Toppers took control late and came out with the 25-21 first-set victory. The host Bobcats and WKU traded points for much of the frame before WKU pushed ahead for good.
