TROY, Ala. - The Troy University Trojans volleyball team hosts perennial favorites Middle Tennessee and WKU this weekend in Sun Belt Conference action, coming off a non-conference victory Wednesday night.
Troy (10-11, 2-2 Sun Belt) will face the Blue Raiders of Middle Tennessee Friday night at 7 pm, with MTSU leading the all-time series 11-1. The only win by the Trojans came in a tournament in 1995, prior to them joining the Sun Belt Conference.
Meanwhile, Troy will be back in action on Saturday afternoon at 3 pm to face the Lady Toppers of WKU. Troy has never been able to beat the Lady Toppers, as they lead the series 11-0.
Troy has been quite successful in conference play thus far this season, with victories over ULM and UALR. Their only two defeats in conference play have come against Louisiana-Lafayette and Arkansas State. The last time Troy started with an even .500 record through four matches was just last, and the Trojans ended up 7-10 and finishing ninth overall in the conference.
