CULLOWHEE, N.C. - Western Carolina volleyball will host a mid-week Southern Conference match with rival Appalachian State at 7 p.m. Wednesday in the Ramsey Center.

It is the first of the three final home matches of the 2009 season, as Western Carolina closes out its season, at home, November 14-15. The Catamounts are currently 3-22 on the season and 0-11 in the Southern Conference. Appalachian State is 10-15 overall and 6-5 in the SoCon.
