ISU Looks to Continue Win Streak at No. 4 Kansas
11.18.2016 | Volleyball
AMES, Iowa - Fresh off its first win over a top-5 opponent since 2012, and a bye during mid-week, the Iowa State volleyball team returns to the court on Saturday when they take on No. 4 Kansas in Lawrence. First serve at the Horejsi Center will be at 11 a.m.
Tickets to the match are sold out. The match will be streamed on ESPN3 and WatchESPN. For more info on how to watch the match, click here. Live stats for the match will be provided by Kansas here.
Iowa State extended its winning streak to six matches last Saturday after taking down No. 5 Texas at Hilton Coliseum. The Cyclones will be looking to knock off another top-5 opponent on Saturday, which would be the first time ISU has ever defeated top-5 teams in back-to-back matches and the third time ISU had defeated a pair of top-5 squads in the same season (2009 & 2012). The Cyclones had a pair of student-athletes earn Big 12 honors last week, with Samara West being named Big 12 Offensive Player of the Week and Hali Hillegas earning Big 12 Rookie of the Week.
Kansas, who has now won 12-straight matches and are atop the Big 12 with a 13-1 record, will be celebrating its Senior Day on Saturday, but the story surrounds a junior. First Team All-American Kelsie Payne left KU's match at West Virginia on Wednesday early with an injury. The Jayhawks were able to adjust and survive the WVU effort in five sets, with middle blockers Tayler Soucie and Zoe Hill stepping up for KU in the crucial points.Â
Payne, one of the favorites to be named Big 12 Player of the Year, has been a difference-maker when ISU and KU have met. In the meeting in Ames on Oct. 5, a four-set win for Kansas, Payne had 18 kills at .318, 16 digs and eight blocks.
KU will be looking for its fifth-straight victory over Iowa State. The Cyclones will be looking for their first victory in Lawrence since 2013.
