By Lamar Smith [email protected] No. 24 UK volleyball (7-5) looks to gain momentum against the South Carolina Gamecocks (7-6) as UK travels to Colombia for the team’s first Southeastern Conference match-up. UK has won its last three games, in which it has only lost two sets total. The team is led by SEC Co-Defensive Player of the Week and sophomore middle blocker Kaz Brown. Brown recorded a double-double in the team’s himcolin gel four-set victory over Louisville. Brown leads the team in several categories including total points (168.5), blocks (62) and hitting percentage (.344). Brown had 13 blocks in the first four sets in the Cats’ last match, setting a record for the most blocks in a four-set match during the rally-scoring era. She finished the match with 17 blocks. Sophomore outside hitter Darian Mack also has had abilify an immense impact on the Cats’ attack with 146 kills and 168.5 points, leading the team. Mack is versatile with her ability to keep the ball in play with 110 digs, which is second on the team. Brown looks to head a defense that will have its hands full versus South Carolina’s attack. Led by junior middle blocker Dessaa Legros who has 172 kills and averages 3.74 kills per set. The Gamecocks also have two other players who have recorded over 100 kills in senior outside hitter Sarah Blomgren and senior middle blocker Darian Dozier. Although the Gamecocks poise a strong attack, the team also tends to make a lot of mistakes. UK should look to exploit this since South Carolina already has 269 errors this season. South Carolina is strong at home (5-2), but are vulnerable because the Gamecocks are coming off a four-set loss against Coastal Carolina in Columbia.
