The Butler University volleyball team took a 3-1 win over the Xavier Musketeers on Sept. 23. Butler boosted its record to 11-3 (1-1 Big East.)

It marked the first conference win for the Bulldogs. Freshman middle blocker Rachel Klitzing posted team-high kills and blocks, adding 15 and six, respectively.

We did a really good job of finding the holes in their defense and getting the ball there,” Klitzing said.
