Washington volleyball team turns back Iowa
The Washington volleyball team defeated Iowa 3-1 Friday night at Alaska Airlines Arena.
The 13th-ranked Huskies rallied from a set down to turn the momentum their way, winning the next three sets on the first day of the Pac-12/Big Ten Challenge.
Washington (3-0) had to match Iowa’s (2-2) determined defensive effort to come out with the 21-25, 25-22, 25-23, 25-16 victory.
Sophomore Samantha Drechsel was a strong offensive weapon all night for the Huskies as she had 13 kills and hit .385 with an ace and two blocks. Junior Kara Bajema had 14 kills and added a career-high 17 digs to lead four Huskies with double-figure digs totals.
