An intense rally in No. 23 Houston’s battle against South Dakota produced an all-time highlight on Friday night as the programs looked to claim a victory in the opening round of the NCAA volleyball tournament in Omaha.
With the Cougars leading two sets to one, junior Kate Georgiades went all out to keep the ball in play after it rocketed off her teammate, senior Morgan Janda, during a rally in the fourth set. As the ball sailed toward the end line, Georgiades sprinted and leaped to hit it over her head, but took a nasty spill over a table in the process.
