BOWLING GREEN, Ky. – Just three days after securing its fourth-straight automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament, WKU Volleyball is excited to announce that this year's NCAA Selection Show Watch party will take place at Buffalo Wild Wings.

This year's senior class is the first group of Lady Toppers in program history to appear in the NCAA Tournament all four years during its time on The Hill. Over the last three years, WKU has traveled to regional sites in Champaign, Ill., Provo, Utah and Stanford, Calif.
With three wins last weekend, Travis Hudson and company have posted their fourth-straight 30-win campaign now owning a 30-3 mark on the season. The Red and White finished with the most wins at home since 2012 as well, going 15-0 inside Diddle Arena. The unblemished mark is the fifth time in WKU Volleyball history that a team has finished undefeated at home for an entire season. Additionally, WKU has now won the last two conference tournaments it has hosted.
WKU Volleyball has now advanced to the NCAA Tournament seven of the past eight seasons. In total, Hudson has led the program to 11 appearances in The Dance, nine by automatic bids.
