By Ben Everett | Sports Editor

Baylor volleyball defeated Kansas 3-0 on Saturday afternoon at the Ferrell Center behind a dominant performance from junior middle blocker Shelly Fanning.

The Bears (14-7, 6-4) defeated the Jayhawks (13-7, 6-3) at home for the first time in head coach Ryan McGuyre’s tenure.

Fanning led the Bears with 18 kills on 26 attempts for a .692 hitting percentage. Senior outside hitter Aniah Philo chipped in five kills, two assists and 11 digs.

Fanning said her performance is a product of the team passing the ball well and playing good defense.
