  • The freshman outside hitter put away a match-high 22 kills in Friday’s five-setter, one shy of a career-high, hitting .314 while recording eight digs with four blocks and a pair of aces.  

  • In the second meeting, the native of Cannes, France, totaled nine digs and a career-high six aces to go along with two blocks and two digs.
