After a two-game skid against Cincinnati and UCF, Houston found itself back in the win column with a five-set victory over South Florida on Sunday in Tampa, Florida.
The first set started off as a barn burner with both teams matching each other point for point.
With the set tied at 20, the Bulls closed it out by scoring five of the last seven points and winning 25-22.
The Cougars responded to the set loss by jumping on the Bulls early in the second set.
Houston was up 4-0 after a combined block from freshman middle blocker Rachel Tullos and sophomore middle blocker Kendall Haywood.
