EL PASO, Texas – The New Mexico State volleyball team hit .357 and swept Grand Canyon, 27-25, 26-24, 25-19, at UTEP's Memorial Gym on Saturday afternoon for its 26th WAC win in-a-row. Senior setter Natalie Mikels crossed the 2,000 assist threshold and cracked NM State's career top-10 for service aces in the match. With the win, NM State head coach Mike Jordan picked up his 499th win.
"We faced a good team," said head coach Mike Jordan. "We're not at home, we would benefit from our home crowd but now you have to generate your own energy which teaches you a lot about your team.
