No. 13 Mesa Community College volleyball returned home Friday night and made quick work of Benedictine University, earning a straight-set sweep (25–16, 25–22, 25–20) to improve to 2-1 on the season.
The Thunderbirds hit .206 as a team and got contributions across the board. Isa Folau led the attack with 10 kills while hitting .286, adding two service aces. Marley Cortez chipped in seven kills and a team-high four blocks, while Lindsey Leavitt and Gracie McArthur each added five kills.
