RENO, Nev. - The Nevada volleyball team enters the Sacramento State Invitational on a four-match winning streak as they are set to take on the Hornets at 7 p.m. on Friday, Sept. 18, and Santa Clara at 10 a.m. and Kent State at 5 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 19.
Sacramento State will look to avenge last season's loss to the Wolf Pack, a 3-0 sweep at the Virginia Street Gym on Sept. 9.
Last weekend, Nevada went 3-0 at the Wolf Pack Classic with wins over Weber State, Montana State and Miami (OH). The victories over the Bobcats and Red Hawks were both in straight sets, the first time since 2007 that the Wolf Pack swept opponents in back-to-back matches.
After last weekend, the Wolf Pack is now on a four-match winning streak, its longest streak since winning four-straight in 2010.
