Entering the NCAA Tournament, Houston volleyball head coach David Rehr set a goal of reaching the Sweet 16.
UH did just that on Friday night, erasing a 2-1 deficit to win a five-set thriller on Friday night at Creighton’s D.J. Sokol Arena in Omaha, Nebraska.
“To go to the Sweet 16 with this team means everything,” said UH outside hitter Abbie Jackson. “We had our sights on the (NCAA) tournament, but now we have our sights set even farther.”
With the season on the brink of ending after Auburn put together a dominating 25-12 third-set victory, UH head coach David Rehr knew what needed to be done if the Cougars were going to stay alive.
