O'Grady wrapped the afternoon as one of three Spartans with 10 or more terminations as junior right-side hitter Savannah Page and graduate student outside hitter Allison Palmi finished with 12 and 10 kills, respectively. For Page, the total marked a career-high, besting her total of 10 kills versus Marshall on 9/17/2022.
