Kara Bajema pounded out a match-high 20 kills in a 3-1 comeback win for Washington on Friday night, then backed that up with a team-high 13 to help UW sweep the rematch on Saturday.
Bajema made a big impact on the defensive side of the ball as well. A pair of sprawling digs from Bajema, combined with a big block from Drechsel, helped make one rally on Saturday NCAAVolleyball’s #1 play of the weekend:
Friday: #17 Washington 3, #14 San Diego 1 (21-25, 28-26, 25-21, 25-22)
Saturday: UW 3, USD 0 (25-15, 25-21, 25-16)
What we learned
The rotation for UW on Friday and Saturday was slightly different, but mostly the same.
