The No. 22 Arizona volleyball team completed the season sweep of Arizona State, winning 30-16, 30-25, 30-27 over the Sun Devils at Wells Fargo Arena Friday.

The Wildcats improved to 17-9 overall and 9-7 in Pac-10, and with two regular-season matches left, ensure at least a .500 finish in the Pac-10.

"This was a good win for this time of year, going against a rival school and playing in a hostile environment," Arizona coach David Rubio said. "In games two and three, I was proud of how the team responded.

"They never panicked; they played steady, self-confident volleyball."

Junior Kim Glass led the way for UA, finishing with 20 kills and 11 digs for her ninth double-double of the season. Arizona senior Jolene Killough added 14 kills on 22 attempts for a .636 hitting percentage. She also added four digs and two blocks.

Juniors Bre Ladd and Jennifer Abernathy had seven kills apiece.

I don't care what sport it is. I just love when we beat Arizona State. In fact, Fem and I were shopping down on Belmont today and when we were driving by some stores we saw some chick in an ASU sweatshirt and we both booed her out the window. The rivalry never dies.

Does anyone know how we match up against ASU overall? In all sports? They might kick our ass in football this year, but that's just one sport. Any insight?

Always check the Sears Cup for that information. We usually finish top 10 while the scummies are top-20. There is an occaisional fluke year, but really, there is no comparison between the two programs.
