Volleyball opens conference play with a three set sweep

Women’s volleyball swept Temple in three sets. However, they had to overcome a six-point deficit in set two to seal a match win in the American Athletic Conference season opener on their home court.

“We are down in the second set and we kind of just look at each other and say hey let’s do this and we did it,” junior outside hitter Brylee Kelly said.

The Shockers beat Temple 3-0 (25-13) (25-21) (25-15) on Friday night. The offensive momentum in set one for the Shockers fell off in the second set.

After falling behind on several attack errors, junior setter Kayce Litzau said she and her team used mental toughness to pull themselves together and play clean volleyball.
