After not leading the Arizona volleyball team in kills last week against Oregon for the first time this season, true sophomore outside hitter Kim Glass got to the 30-kill plateau against Oregon State - and nearly did it again at No. 2 Hawaii with 28. Glass' 30 kills came in a match that lasted only three games - the only time a player has done that this season.

Glass, who broke a Wildcat single-season record with 556 kills last year, should be the first UA player to break the 1,000-kill barrier as a sophomore next week in the Bay Area. [Read article]

The schedule features 16 national appearances, with nine games offered on Fox Sports Net, three on ESPN and ESPN2, and two apiece on CBS and ABC. [Read article]

Arizona vs. California

Can lightning strike twice? Can the Wildcats soothe their souls with a win at Cal for the second straight year? They could. And they can. But they won't. Don't forget, the Golden Bears handed the 5th-ranked Trojans their first and only loss of the season to date. Arizona's running game will be successful for the second game in a row, and Heavner will continue to improve. But the Berkeley hippies take this one. [Read article]
