Volleyball heading on final road trip before conference play

The 11–1 Cougars will travel this weekend to compete in the RMU Sheraton Invitational against three teams. Houston is currently riding a three-match win streak after UTSA ruined its perfect record.

Junior outside hitter Megan Duncan has been dominant in 2018, racking up 148 kills, 88 digs, 24 blocks and 12 service aces. Duncan is in the team’s top five for each statistic.

UH has found a lot of help from sophomore outside hitter Silvia Pertens, who is playing her second season for the Cougars. Pertens aided the team in sweeping all four of its games in the Sawyer Camillo Memorial Classic and earned the American Volleyball Scouting Report’s Player of the Week award in the process as well.
