Men's volleyball remains undefeated
The No. 1 UA men's volleyball team won its annual Desert Thunder tournament last weekend at the Student Recreation Center to improve its record to 13-0 this season.
The tournament field featured three other ranked teams in No. 5 Colorado, No. 9 Michigan State and No. 10 San Diego State.
On their way to the victory, the Wildcats defeated Colorado St., Wyoming and California junior college Golden West on Saturday.
Sunday's action saw UA top the Spartans and notch another victory over Golden West.
UA middle blocker Scott Ogilvie was named the tournament's most valuable player. Senior setter Jeff Grobe and outside hitter Matt Olson joined Ogilvie on the all-tournament team.
This weekend, the Wildcats travel to Davis, Calif., to play in a tougher regional tournament. Among the competitors are five other ranked teams, including the Buffaloes and Aztecs.
