OU, ORU Volleyball Both Victorious On Saturday

OU Sweeps Baylor

Oklahoma, which has won nine of its last 10 contests against Baylor, picked up its eighth straight-sets victory of the season, by scores of 25-13, 25-13 and 25-19, and first in conference play.

"We played pretty solid," said head coach Santiago Restrepo. "We worked a lot this week on blocking and defending. We did, overall, a very good job of that. I think our serving passing did very well today and that was key."
