Mountaineers’ spring schedule announced

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — West Virginia University Director of Athletics Shane Lyons announced the 2021 volleyball spring schedule.

The Mountaineers, who finished 8-8 during their conference-only fall slate, return to action with four total contests, leading up to this spring’s NCAA tournament. Last fall, the NCAA approved moving fall championships to spring 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The squad travels to Bowling Green, Ky., for its spring regular-season opener against Western Kentucky at 6 p.m. on Friday, March 12.

From there, West Virginia heads to Washington, D.C., for a match at George Washington at 3 p.m. on Wednesday, March 17, before battling Pitt at 7 p.m. on Wednesday, March 24, in Pittsburgh.

The spring schedule concludes a week later when the Mountaineers trek to Towson, Md., for a 3 p.m. match on Tuesday, March 30, against Towson.
