Quotable
"We're playing one of the top teams in the league – if not, the top team in the league," UNC Asheville (6-10, 1-5 Big South) volleyball head coach Frederico Santos said. "It's a team that got an at-large bid to the NCAA last year. They are tough again this year, but that's the Big South. I think on any given day, anybody could beat anybody. We're going up there looking to improve from our performance this past Tuesday, which was a good performance at USC Upstate, and then see what happens at the end of Saturday's match."
