Three Mavs notch double-doubles in the four-set win
ARLINGTON, Texas – Brianna Ford led three Mavs with double-doubles as the UT Arlington volleyball team (1-3) took down Texas A&M-Commerce 23-25, 25-15, 25-19, 25-19 in the UTA Classic on Friday inside the College Park Center.
Â
"We had a fantastic crowd tonight," UTA head coach J.T. Wenger said. "It was a lot of fun. I think we found our rhythm a little bit after that first set. We were able to hold them under 20 in the final three, so that's always a good accomplishment. I think we have a ways to go with our game in terms of terminating more balls but we're happy to come away with the win."
Â
Ford hit .308 while registering 19 kills, 17 digs and five blocks in what was her 13th career double-double. Jalie Tritt notched her first career double-double with 12 kills and 10 digs. It was the freshman's second consecutive match with double-digit kills. Mollie Blank totaled 38 assists, 13 digs and seven kills for her team-best 15th career double-double, which she clinched in the second set.
Â
Defensively, Alli Wells produced a match-high 28 digs to push her career total to 1,252, which allowed her to surpass Madelyn St. Germain (1,233, 2016-19) for the 17th-most digs in program history. Next up is Heather Hoy (1,275, 1994-97) and Shari Parks (1,276, 1984-87).
Â
Alyssa Duran led the team with three aces while adding eight digs. Kortney Puckett led all players with six blocks.
Â
UT Arlington will be back in action twice on Saturday, beginning at 11 a.m. against Providence before facing North Texas at 6:30 p.m. The evening match will feature a white out and the first 150 students through the door will get a free t-shirt.
