Wahine volleyball sweeps UC Riverside to open Big West Conference play
HONOLULU (HawaiiNewsNow) - The University of Hawaii women’s volleyball team opened Big West Conference play with a big sweep over UC Riverside on Thursday night in California.
The Rainbow Wahine began their Big West title defense with a 25-21, 25-19, 25-16 win to move to 4-5 on the season and undefeated in the conference.
UH’s Amber Igiede led the ‘Bows with a game-high 13 kills on 21 swings, while freshman Katy Lang handed out a game-high 36 assists and nine digs.
