Middle hitter Kaitlyn Mumm made her return from injury an impressive one with nine kills on 10 attempts and no errors. Fellow middle Maelyn Wainwright had 10 kills and 1 error on 18 attempts. Leslie Snow had another double-double while leading the team in kills (13) and digs (18). Setter Landry Pacha paced the squad with 20 assists with Makayla Ribble right behind with 17 assists.
