Good morning, BBN! It’s game day!
The Kentucky Wildcats compete for a volleyball national championship this afternoon against Texas A&M. It’s Kentucky’s second appearance in the NCAA Volleyball National Championship and Texas A&M’s first appearance. It’s also the first time two SEC teams have competed for the national championship.
It’s been a fantastic postseason run for the Wildcats, going back to that thrilling win over Texas in the SEC Championship and all the way to that come-from-behind win over Wisconsin
in the semifinals. Now, the Cats have a chance to top it off with a national championship.
Game time is set for 3:30 PM ET on ABC.
This will serve as today’s open thread, so make sure to come back here to talk about the game!
