UK volleyball defeats UALR to finish weekend 3-0

By Caitlin Schwartz

The No. 15 UK volleyball team finished its Saturday night tournament play by defeating unranked Little Rock in a three-set match (25-23, 25-14, 25-22) to finish the Bluegrass Battle undefeated.

Darian Mack, a 6-foot sophomore outside hitter, finished the night with 13 kills, eight digs, and added a pair of blocks to the mix as well. She led the team against Little Rock with 15.5 points for the Cats.

Mack credits her fire to Coach Craig Skinner for, “that little encouragement to ‘just go for it’.” Mack said, “I saw some open spots and took advantage of it and just let it rip.
