Lobo women’s volleyball rebounded from last week’s losses and beat both their rivals in road games in Utah and Idaho.
UNM had previously defeated Utah State University (USU) in a home game on Sept. 30 of this year and shut them out again in three straight sets, 25-19, 25-21 and 25-13, which also marked head coach Nelson’s 200th victory at the helm of UNM’s program.
On offensive, UNM players made a strong showing, led by Lauren Twitty who drove in 11 kills and 18 digs, notching her 11th double-double of the season. Mariessa Carrasco tallied nine kills, followed by Victoria Spragg and Hailey Rubino each credited with seven kills, as well as Carly Beddingfield and Yasmin Tan who chipped in four kills apiece.
