Middle blockers redshirt sophomore Laura Parts and junior Thaliana Grajeda came behind Nelson with nine kills each.
Junior setter Kaitlynn Zdroik came on top in assists with 19, and freshman setter Mamie Garard wasn’t far behind with 18. Garard also has six digs to Zdroik’s five.
Once again, senior libero Luiza Andrade led the Spartans in digs with 14.
