MANHATTAN, Kan. -- Washington State defeated Arkansas 30-15, 30-21, 30-18, in the Cougars second match of the Kansas State Wildcat Tournament Saturday at Ahearn Field House in Manhattan, Kansas.

Five service aces and a .353 hitting percentage gave the Cougars a first game win of 30-15. The Lady Backs hit a -.032. WSU had to play just a little longer in game one due to a miscalculation by the official scorekeeper in awarding a WSU point to Arkansas at the 21-13 juncture.

Game two went to the Cougs, 30-21, with five more service aces for the Wazzu women, and WSU cruised to the third game win, 30-18, with Victoria Prince and Chelsie Schafer each grabbing a solo block.
