USF opens play against Stetson. The Bulls have been dominant over the Hatters, riding an 18-game winning streak against the in-state rival and a 39-3 all-time record.
Host Georgia Tech is the only team entering the tournament with a winning record. The Yellow Jackets are led by outside hitter Talisa Kellogg and her team-high 84 kills per game.

Keep an eye on: outside hitter Ashley Reavis. The senior is second on USF in kills (77), aces (8) and third in digs (69).
