“This was a big win for us,” said Spartan junior outside hitter Erin Morgan.

The Rockets played a competitive match, and led for most of the first set before the Spartans pulled away.  Senior setter Hannah Ochsner had a big night, leading the Rockets in assists, 36, while her sister, libero Holly Ochsner led the Rockets in digs with 22.  Senior outside hitter Makenna Kirk led the Rockets with 13 kills.
