The Idaho volleyball team got off to a rocky start but bounced back to pick up another win at the Santa Clara/San Jose State Tournament.

Idaho (5-6) was handled by Santa Clara early on Friday before turning around and dominating San Jose State defensively later that night. An upset bid against No. 9 Kansas was cut short after four sets on Saturday.

Junior outside hitter Kaela Straw earned all-tournament honors. She posted a team-high 34 kills through three contests, 17 of which were against Kansas.

Head coach Debbie Buchanan said in a news release that she felt the Vandals did not play Santa Clara the way in which she expected.
