Strong group of middle blockers promising for Cougars

As the Cougars prepare for their second tournament of the season, they’ll be hoping for a similar outcome as last time.

The Cougars took second place at the Texas Tech Fall Regional behind some strong play from the team as a whole.

This week, we’re focusing on UH’s talented group of middle blockers.

Senior Courtney Smith: In her final year with the Cougars, Smith will be looking to build on the strong performance she had last season.

Smith appeared in 27 matches last season, starting 23 of them.

Even when appearing in 95 sets, Smith recorded 65 blocks and 42 kills last season, but appears ready to take on a bigger role for this year.
