Finding your way around the block. That’s the task at hand for any team that faces Washington State and Washington. This weekend, Arizona volleyball (14-9, 6-6 Pac-12) must take on that task as they travel to the Apple State to battle the Cougars and the Huskies.
The top two blockers in the conference hail from the two schools furthest north. What’s worse for opponents is that the tenth-ranked blocker is also there.
First, the Wildcats will face Magda Jehlarova in Pullman. The junior from the Czech Republic ranks second in the conference with 1.38 blocks per set.
