Illinois Volleyball wins sixth straight with sweep of Northwestern

CHAMPAIGN, Ill. — Make that SIX. Illinois Volleyball carried over its red-hot October form into November, opening the month with a 3-0 (25-23, 25-22, 25-23) win over the Northwestern Wildcats at Huff Hall.

The win marks the end of a three-game homestand that saw the Fighting Illini take down the Indiana Hoosiers, who were receiving votes in the AVCA poll, and the No. 16 Purdue Boilermakers.

Raina Terry made history, en route to a match-high 22 kills. She broke the 1,500-kill mark and entered the top ten of Illinois’ all-time career kills list.
