“Iowa State did a great job responding after its loss yesterday and the loss of one of its players,” UK coach Craig Skinner said. “It is an experienced team and they stepped up and made plays when they needed to, which is what Kentucky needs to learn how to do. Getting over the hump of not giving up runs of points will help this team learn how to win together.” Iowa St. won the four-set match 3-1 (25-17, 22-25, 25-22, 25-22).[PRBREAK][/PRBREAK]
UK head coach Craig Skinner and the UK volleyball team will return home Wednesday Sept. 1, against in-state rival Louisville at 6:30 p.m. ET. Being the first home game for the Wildcats, they’ll look to get a mark in the win column. A lot of the sport programs will be looking to get a win against rival Louisville this week including soccer and football.
For the volleyball team, they’ll enjoy a much needed 6 match home-game streak in the coming weeks. A quick trip to Cincinnati and then they’ll return to Lexington for another 8 match home-game streak.
