It doesn't get much better than a top-ranked college volleyball match. Powerhouse programs Penn State and Pitt will go head to head Wednesday.
The reigning national champions have fallen from previous heights, with losses to No. 6 Kentucky, No. 9 TCU and No. 8 Arizona State all plummeting their national rank. The Nittany Lions have not yet faced a ranked opponent since sophomore All-American Izzy Starck announced she would be taking the rest of the season off to focus on her mental health.
Meanwhile, No. 5 Pitt has stood strong in their revenge campaign. Though the Panthers have not been perfect, they have handily defeated programs like Kentucky, TCU and Arizona State. Olivia Babcock & Co. have a chance to make a further statement against Penn State this week.
