Dear WKU Volleyball Alumni, Parents, and Friends of Hilltopper Volleyball,
The 2023 season was yet another remarkable year for the WKU volleyball program. We finished the regular season with a 30-5 overall record and an undefeated conference mark claiming both the regular season and tournament championships in Conference USA. We then advanced to the 2nd round of the NCAA tournament for the 5th straight season before falling to #9 ranked Tennessee. In addition, we put together an impressive list of accomplishments:
    • 18th Consecutive AVCA Team Academic Award with a team GPA of 3.54
    • 30-5 final record (8th in the nation in winning percentage)
    • National ranking of #22 in the AVCA Top 25 Poll and final RPI ranking of #16
    • 9th Conference USA regular season title and 8th tournament championship since 2014
    • 16th NCAA tournament appearance since 2002 and 8th time advancing to the 2nd round since 2012
    • 24th straight 20+ win season • One of only 12 teams to win an NCAA tournament match AND finish in the Top 25 poll in the last 5 seasons
The response from you all these past few years has been tremendous, and we can't thank you enough for your support!!! Because of your assistance, we have been able to maintain our high level of success during these uncertain times in college athletics. All of you who have donated in the past, we hope you will continue to donate and for those who haven't had the opportunity, any amount would help our program continue to achieve at the level we have been able to maintain for the last decade. It is an exciting time for WKU Volleyball, with a Sweet 16 appearance in the spring of 2021 and NCAA tournament runs in the fall of 2021, 2022, and 2023…what a few years it's been! We would love to ride that momentum and keep climbing… but we need your help! The money that you provide through our Victory Club has been utilized for things such as supplementing scholarships and equipment, increasing our support staff, enhancing our recruiting efforts, and making upgrades to our facility. ALL of these things DIRECTLY impact our student-athletes and are vital to our future success. Your support will help us still be able to achieve our goals and keep the momentum going! Any level that you are able to give is greatly appreciated! Thank you for your continued support of WKU volleyball!
Sincerely,
Travis Hudson
