Good morning. Have you ever taken a selfie with a 7-foot person? Well, if you do, it will most likely just be your forehead in view because this is the angle it will be taken.

What else are we mixing into today’s Brew?

The awards don’t stop there— Eleanor Beavin set a new career high with a 30-dig performance against No. 10 Arkansas and was named SEC Defensive Player of the Week. Kentucky volleyball jumped up five spots in the American Volleyball Coaches’ Association top-25 poll and is now ranked No. 15.

🔵 ONE BIG THING

🔼 Unfamiliar Color. As Big Blue Nation, red is not a color we see often. But for special events like the Go Red for Women luncheon, red was the main color on site. The luncheon was all about heart disease risk, and some current athletes and coaches made an appearance— coach Kyra Elzy, Maddie Scherr, and Isabella Magnelli. The women spoke about their life mottos and what they do to stay healthy.
