UH volleyball swept Memphis on the road on Sunday afternoon, maintaining its perfect American Athletic Conference record and extending its winning streak to nine.

Despite jumping out to an early lead, Memphis came roaring back and put the Cougars into a 19-16 deficit.

UH came back to tie at 24 all, and won the set thanks to graduate middle blocker Isabel Theut’s back-to-back game-winning kills.

The second set was chock full of ties and lead changes. Tied at 25, an ace by graduate outside hitter Kennedy Warren followed by a Memphis error gave the Cougars the set by a score of 27-25.
