Five stories to watch as Wichita State begins fall athletics:
Is there a challenger for Wichita State in the American Athletic Conference volleyball race?
The Shockers went 20-0 in their AAC debut, pushed to five sets once. While coaches voted them first in the preseason poll, the 2018 conference schedule (now 18 matches) will present more challenges.
Wichita State lost six seniors, including American Athletic Conference Setter of the Year Emily Hiebert and Player of the Year Abbie Lehman. Much of the lineup steps into bigger roles or is new to Shocker volleyball.
