Kansas volleyball enters the final stretch of the regular season riding a six-game winning streak and sitting just a game and a half behind BYU for first place in the Big 12 standings.

The Jayhawks' latest victory came Sunday against Cincinnati, where Kansas secured a sweep with set scores of 25-23, 25-18 and 28-26.

Kansas is also positioned inside the top 16 of the NCAA's Rating Percentage Index, which factors in a team's winning percentage and strength of schedule. Head coach Matt Ulmer says he would like to maintain that position, giving the Jayhawks an opportunity to host NCAA Tournament matches for the fourth consecutive year.

Several sets have come down to close finishes during the Jayhawks' recent stretch, and Ulmer says his team approaches those extended sets the same way it would a typical set played to 25 points.

Kansas will return to action tonight against Colorado in Boulder, looking to extend its winning streak to seven games. First serve is set for 8 p.m.
