Volleyball: Wildcats sweep first three games, have yet to drop a set

The Northwestern volleyball team is off to a hot start to the 2022 season. Starting 3-0 for the first time since 2019, Shane Davis’ squad went undefeated in the Wildcats Classic, spanning Aug. 26 and 27, and did not surrender a single set along the way.

Senior outside hitter and 2021 B1G First Team member, Temi Thomas-Ailara picked up exactly where she left off last season. In the Wildcat’s first game of the season against University of the Pacific, Thomas-Ailara had 12 kills, three blocks and no errors. Junior setter Alexa Rousseau remained steady in the middle, recording 24 assists.
