Running the same course on Oʻahu‘s North Shore that she did in the season opener at the Big Wave Invitational, Jarvis crossed the line in 20:29 over the five kilometer course, only behind an HPU runner and two from Division I University of Hawaiʻi.
Freshman setter Kott helped direct the Vulcans to five consecutive wins in northern California. Kott had a conference-best 176 assists on the week and had a collegiate high of 19 digs against the Argonauts. Earlier in the week, Kott had four service aces in a three-set win over Dominican. On the year, Kott leads the PacWest with 10.75 assists per set.
