Morehead, Ky.-- The Morehead State volleyball team gets back to action Thursday and Friday as they host Tennessee Tech in Johnson Arena. First service is scheduled for 7:00 p.m. ET, Thursday and 4:00 p.m. ET Friday. Both matches are scheduled to be aired on ESPN+.

The Eagles return to Johnson Arena coming off a series sweep last weekend over the Lindenwood Lions in St. Charles, Mo., to run their OVC record to 5-0 to kick off the conference season. The last time the Eagles ran off five straight to begin conference play was in the Spring of 2021, when MSU ran off 14 straight wins to begin the season and captured the OVC Championship and a berth in the NCAA tournament where the Eagles knocked of Creighton in the opening round in Omaha, Nebraska.  Morehead State stands alone in second place in the OVC standings, behind Little Rock at 6-0.
