Young hitters shine again as Arizona volleyball sweeps UC San Diego to cap Cactus Classic

Arizona volleyball completed an unbeaten weekend Saturday with a sweep (25-17, 25-13, 25-16) of UC San Diego. The Wildcats were once again led by their young trio of freshman Puk Stubbe and sophomores Jaelyn Hodge and Sofia Maldonado Diaz.

Hodge had 13 kills on a crisp .344 hitting percentage, Maldonado Diaz added six aces and seven kills on .377 hitting, and Stubbe pitched in with five kills and three aces.

The Wildcats hit .380 as a team, their best mark since Sept. 20, 2019 against Alabama State.

“We have really good team chemistry this year,” Hodge said.
