After starting its first few games on the road, the volleyball team came back home this week to host the 8th annual Flo Hyman Collegiate Cup. Since their return to the Athletics and Alumni Center, the Cougars have managed a 2-1 record. They sought to continue their good fortune against the Prairie View A&M Panthers Wednesday night.
Houston eased into a first set victory behind strong performances from senior outside hitters Sarah Afflerbaugh and Brianna Gardner, who combined for a total of 10 kills in the 26-16 routing.
The Panthers responded in the second set and jumped out to an early lead, but their efforts were met with disappointment.
