The Lady Toppers (30-3) are one of the top offensive teams across Division I, while the Fighting Irish (22-9) rank among the nation’s defensive leaders.

WKU coach Travis Hudson said that contrast will be “the story of the match” Friday at Memorial Coliseum. First serve is set for 4 p.m. CST, with the match streamed on ESPN3.

The winner will face either East Tennessee State or No.
