It was a big day for the Big Blue Nation as the Kentucky Volleyball team played Texas A&M for a National Championship in Kansas City. In the first-ever all-SEC championship match, the Cats got swept as they
fell 3-0 to the Aggies.
The Cats came out hot, leading the majority of the first set by five or six points, as they put the Texas A&M squad on their heels.
However, coming out of a time-out, the Aggies’ defense flipped a switch, and they never looked back. Whether it was in the block or in the outside hitting, Craig Skinner’s squad could never quite get into rhythm, ending a special season for the program in Lexington.
With this, we will say goodbye to one of the best players to wear the UK jersey in Eva Hudson. It was a special season for the Purdue transfer that came up just one win short. However, the Cats could return the majority of their roster next season, setting up for another special run in 2026.
It stings now, but it was a fun season.
Go Cats!
