• Mallory Wills found her groove in the victory, reaching double-figure kills (10, 2.50 p/s) for the first time at the college level while racking up an impressive .556 hitting percentage.

 

• Madison Danley also hit double-digits for the first time in 2024, doing so in the digs department with ten (2.50 p/s) on top of three assists (0.75 p/s) and two aces (0.50 p/s).

 

• Service aces seemingly fell like rain for the ladies in Orange and Blue as the trio of Angelina Medrano, Kierra Jones, and Katie Spell each managed to find the hardwood thrice with Jones adding five kills and four blocks to her ledger.

 

• Leah Stamps fronted the defense per usual, going for a contest-best 18 digs (4.50 p/s) while on the flip side of the coin, Kate Campbell smashed a dozen kills despite playing just three of the four sets for an even 4.00 average.

 
Record Book Watch:
 
Career 
 

• Cother ranks fifth on the program's block assist leaderboard after the match at 52 and also climbed up to sixth for digs as well with 588.

 

• Spell was one of the three Wildcats with a trio of aces, in the process she tied teammate Jessica Smith (2022-24) and alum I'Nyah Kately (2018-21) regarding sixth place all-time (52).

 
Team 
 

• The Orange and Blue only trail the 2022 team for combined service aces as they have recorded 144 through 24 matches on top of logging the third-most blocks (112), and fourth-highest number of kills (839) plus assists (759).

 
Season 
 

• Jones wound up breaking her own single-season records from both 2023 and 2022 in terms of block assists, putting her alone at the top and with all of the top-three marks with 49 (and growing) to go along with tying for fourth on the aces list with Cother's 28 from this current campaign.

 

• Stamps is making a strong push for the single-season digs record, rising into the top-three by recording 333 and only needs another 42 digs to overtake Olivia Huval's (2017) crown with seven regular season matches still to go.

 

• Revell swatted away her seventh solo block of the year, placing her on the ladder in that statistic, sitting on the eighth rung.

 
Game 
 

• Coach Salloum's warriors produced one of its best scoring nights of the club's eight-year history vs. JCU, racking up 76 points, the sixth-highest tally ever.
