Despite winning their first 3 matches of the season, Kansas Volleyball fell one spot in the rankings coming into this weekend’s tournament in Orem, Utah. The Jayhawks didn’t let that phase them, as they swept the Utah Valley Wolverines to improve to 4-0 on the season. As usual, tonight’s recap comes to you with the much appreciated contributions of the KU Volleyball twitter feed (@KUVolleyball)

The Jayhawks jumped out to a quick 3-1 lead on the back of two strong kills by Kelsie Payne, but Utah Valley fought back, trading blows as neither team was able to get much separation.
