When the volleyball team returned from the Ellesyn Invitational in late August — its first tournament of the season — the Mavericks were winless, losing all three matches in Montana.
A month down the road, UTA has won eight of its last nine games as the team prepares to enter conference play.
“I feel like in the first couple of matches, it was kind of a little shaky. But we've gotten to the point where we're getting cohesive and playing as one unit,” said Alli Wells, junior defensive specialist and libero.
Three of those wins came at the UTA Invitational this weekend.
