LAWRENCE, Kan. -
Kansas volleyball used a balanced attack of four players with double-figure kills to upset No. 18 Oklahoma and stop a six-match losing skid in Saturday's volleyball action at the Horejsi Family Athletics Center. KU hung on to defeat the Sooners in five, 30-26, 28-30, 20-30 and 15-10 to improve to 11-14 for the season and 4-11 in Big 12 matches. OU dropped to 18-7 overall and 10-5 in the conference.
Kansas' win marks the Jayhawks' first win over a top-25 team since Sept. 7, 2006 in a 3-0 sweep of then-No.16 BYU. Saturday's win was also KU's first victory over a ranked Big 12 opponent since defeating Kansas State on Nov. 5, 2005 when the Wildcats were ranked 24th in the country.
Freshman Jenna Kaiser led the KU attack with 18 kills followed by junior Natalie Uhart with 14, 12 from freshman Karina Garlington and 11 more from senior Caitlin Mahoney.
