VB Set to Welcome Wofford in First Round of NCAAs
Seahawks Come In Hot
Coastal Carolina enters the tournament with a 25-6 record, including a perfect 16-0 mark in Sun Belt Conference play and a regular season title. The Chanticleers have won 17 of their last 18 matches, and they are one of the hottest teams in the country.
Terriers Ready For Upset
Wofford finished the regular season with a 20-10 record, including a 14-4 mark in Southern Conference play. The Terriers won the Southern Conference Tournament title to earn their first NCAA Tournament berth since 2019.
Matchup to Watch
This will be the first ever meeting between Coastal Carolina and Wofford in volleyball.
The Chanticleers are the clear favorite in this matchup, but the Terriers are a dangerous team that could pull off an upset.
The key to the match will be the play of the two outside hitters, MSRV for Coastal Carolina and OHRV for Wofford. Both players are capable of putting up big numbers, and the team that gets the better performance from their outside hitter will likely come out on top.
Prediction
Coastal Carolina is the more talented team, and they should be able to win this match in three or four sets. However, Wofford is a dangerous team that could pull off an upset if the Chanticleers are not careful.
The winner of this match will advance to the second round of the NCAA Tournament, where they will face either No. 1 seed South Carolina or No. 16 seed North Carolina.
