EVANSTON, Ill. -- Northwestern volleyball fans who arrive at Welsh-Ryan Arena on Wednesday, Nov. 5 wearing the color purple will be able to purchase day-of-match tickets for only $1 while supplies last. The box office will open at 6 p.m., one prior to the start of the 7 p.m. match.
Northwestern fell into a two-set deficit the last time Illinois came to Evanston on Oct. 23, 2013, but the Wildcats rallied to win three sets in a row to knock off the Illini in thrilling fashion. Wednesday's match will be the first this season between the Wildcats and Illinois, but they won't wait long to meet a second time. The two sides will reconvene on Saturday, Nov. 8 for a contest at Huff Hall in Champaign, Ill. That tilt will begin at 5 p.m. and it will be televised live on the Big Ten Network.
