LITTLE ROCK – In its final match before the Sun Belt Conference Tournament, Little Rock volleyball (12-16, 8-7 Sun Belt) will close out the 2016 regular season against rival Arkansas State (22-7, 14-1) on Friday at 3:30 p.m., at the Jack Stephens Center.
 
Prior to Friday's match, the Trojans will honor seniors Carolee Dillard, Kelsey Leech, Miona Milovanovic and Edina Selimovic for their hard work and dedication to the program.
 
As of now, Little Rock holds the No. 5-seed in the Sun Belt Conference Tournament, but a few different scenarios can change that. With a win and two UT Arlington losses this weekend, Little Rock would become the No. 4-seed in the tournament. However, a loss and two wins by South Alabama would give Little Rock the No. 6-seed due to the Jaguars holding the head-to-head tiebreaker.
 
The Red Wolves will have their own agenda on Friday as they look to secure the No. 1-seed in the conference tournament. With a Little Rock win, Arkansas State would become the No. 2-seed as Coastal Carolina would lock up the top seed.
