Since training began for this season, Chris Lamb knew how important it would be with so many new players for this year’s Wichita State volleyball team to develop its own identity.

But for at least one night this fall, Lamb will have to acknowledge the historic season the Shockers had last season.

Wichita State will play its first match of the season in Koch Arena at 7 p.m. Friday when it hosts Tulane and drops banners for its 20-0 American Athletic Conference championship and appearance in the 2017 NCAA Tournament.

To make the evening even more memorable, WSU is attempting to break its regular-season attendance record of 6,122 by slashing all general admission tickets to $3.
