Kentucky VB goes into Starkville and leaves with 3-1 win over Mississippi State

Kentucky volleyball extended its winning streak to a dozen on Friday night in Starkville.

The No. 3 Wildcats picked up another big SEC road win with a 3-1 victory over Mississippi State (25-13, 18-25, 25-12, 25-18) in the Newell-Groissom Volleyball Center. All-American hitter Brooklyn DeLeye led the way for Kentucky with a 21-kill, 10-dig performance. She was aided by a pair of double-digit scorers as Eva Hudson and Lizzie Carr combined for 26 kills.

As a team, Kentucky hit .288 on the night, fueled by another impressive performance from star freshman setter Kassie O’Brien, who is fresh off another weekly honor from the Southeastern Conference.
