The KXCV Bearcat Coaches Show looked ahead to another packed weekend of Northwest Missouri State sports, as well as recapping successful tournaments for the tennis teams.

The matchup this time around features No. 17 Northwest with a 4-1 record and No. 8 Pittsburg State with a 5-0 record. John Coffey spoke with head coach Rich Wright and defensive end Mike Ehlke on the show about the big matchup.
Bearcat volleyball suffered its first MIAA loss of the season to No. 4 Nebraska Kearney last weekend. Now Northwest is turning its attention to No. 19 Central Oklahoma to get back on the winning track. Head coach Amy Woerth sat down with Coffey to discuss the weekend.
Mark Rosewell's Northwest Missouri State tennis teams turned heads at the ITA Central Regional in Oklahoma City, OK.

Rosewell, Oliva and Aliseda were guests on the Coaches Show Thursday night to talk about the ITA's.
