The Lady Toppers picked up two more Sun Belt wins

over the weekend. 

With five matches to go in the

regular season, Head Coach Travis Hudson said he’s starting to see

improvements  all around.

“We played complete matches this

weekend,” he said. “You can tell we’re starting to play better on

both sides of the ball.”

The Lady Toppers (23-3, 10-1 Sun

Belt Conference) earned two sweeps in Louisiana, beating

Louisiana-Lafayette on Friday and topping Louisiana-Monroe on

Saturday after an 11-hour bus ride to Lafayette on

Thursday.

WKU has won 17 of its 23 matches in

three sets this season.

“That’s a product of our

confidence,” Hudson said. “That shows that this is a team that

believes in itself and that’s starting to play complete

matches.”

Junior outside hitter Jordyn Skinner

led WKU with 25 total kills over the course of the two matches. She

said the Lady Toppers come into each match hoping to get the

sweep.

“We don’t want to go into four or

five sets, so we come out playing hard hoping we can finish in

three,” Skinner said.

WKU has this week off before its

last home matches of the season this weekend against Denver on

Friday and North Texas on Saturday.
