After taking Wednesday’s match in Evanston, the No. 18 Illini volleyball team looked to grab their second win over the Wildcats in as many games – and their fourth straight victory.
The Illini got the win they were looking for at Huff Hall on Saturday night, completing the season sweep with a 3-1 victory. The win takes the Illini to 17-8 and the season, and 8-6 in conference play.
Senior outside hitter Jocelynn Birks added some accolades of her own on Saturday night. With her game-high 22 kills, Birks now owns 1,853 kills in her career at Illinois, breaking Laura DeBruler’s previous record of 1,833.
