LAST TIME OUT: Kennesaw State battled, but dropped a 3-0 decision at Jacksonville on Saturday afternoon. The Owls led 23-20 in the second set when a botched call at the net robbed KSU of a chance at set point. The set continued into extra points, with JU taking the set 26-24 en route to the 3-0 win.

ABOUT WOFFORD: The Terriers enter tonight's match at 7-2 on the season after sweeping four matches at the USC Upstate Volleyball Classic.
