This is it. The final frontier before the NCAA women's volleyball Final Four.
All four No. 1 and No. 3 seeds advanced through the Round of 16 and will play Saturday and Sunday for a right to advance to Final Four at the T-Mobile Center in Kansas City, Missouri.
Saturday's matches will pit No. 3 Creighton against No. 1 Kentucky (5 p.m. ET, ESPN2) and No. 3 Purdue against No. 1 Pittsburgh (7:30 p.m., ESPN2).
Kentucky takes a 25-match win streak into the Elite Eight, its fourth regional final under coach Craig Skinner.
Pitt's had sweeps against UMBC, Michigan and Minnesota to advance. But many of the sets were too close for comfort.
"I think we're really battle-tested," said Pitt's Olivia Babcock, the reigning Player of the Year. "In no way does it feel like we've swept our way through. All these teams are playing their hardest, and if you look at the scores, it's not like we're blowing teams out. It's like 25-23, a set that could really go either way.
"I feel like it's testing us with how we can play at the end (of sets). That's something that's going to be really important moving into these next three rounds."
