Cougars continue four-match homestand
HOUSTON – Coming off its first win of the 2021 spring season, Houston Volleyball looks to carry that momentum into its doubleheader matchup with Stephen F. Austin on Thursday inside the Athletics/Alumni Center.
This is the first time the two teams have faced each other since Sept. 14, 2013, when the Ladyjacks took down the Cougars in five sets. Although Houston has dropped three of its last five contests with the Ladyjacks, the Cougars lead the all-time series, 16-5.
