The Razorbacks will host the South Carolina Gamecocks on Friday for one of just two remaining home volleyball matches on the season for the Hogs.

Arkansas got back on track last week following a five-match losing streak with a reverse sweep 3-2 victory over Auburn. The Hogs are currently 15-7 overall and 5-5 in SEC play.

South Carolina is just one game behind the Razorbacks at 4-5 in the league and are 13-7 on the season. The Gamecocks have a few notable sweeps against UNC, Florida, and Tennessee, all teams who have been ranked at some point this season.

The Gamecocks have been known to give teams some trouble, as South Carolina has seen seven sets go to extra points this season with a high of 34-32, and 11 more have finished in a 25-23 score. Over 25 percent of the team’s sets have been decided by only two points.

Friday will be Arkansas’ Hero Appreciation Match, honoring and recognizing veterans, first responders, healthcare workers, and other local heroes. First serve is set for 7 p.m. at Barnhill Arena and the action will be streamed live on SEC Network+.
