Kayley Cassaday continued her impressive junior campaign last week, notching American Athletic Conference Honor Roll honors for a second time this season. The Overland Park, Kansas native tallied 40 kills over the two matches, and was fourth in the AAC in points-per-set last week (5.0).
Roosa Rautio has also had a massive impact since being inserted back into the starting lineup on November 5th against Tulane. The senior recorded back-to-back 40 plus assist matches last week, posting a season-best 47 in the Wichita State match before tallying 14.33 assists per set against Temple with 43. Rautio has accounted for 87.5% of Tulsa's assists the past four matches.
When Tulsa and ECU square off on Friday, it'll be the 24th time historically the two programs have met, and the second time this season. The Hurricane won in four sets back on October 17th and lead the all-time series 21-2.
