Cincy’s Jordan Thompson
Became the 7th player in College vball to have 50 or more kills in a match. She had 50 against UCONN this past weekend...Her senior night. She hit .530 for the match - with 83 swings. Against UD she hit .321 with 53 swings.
Last person to have 50+ kills was in 1999 - back when teams played to 30 points a set, so she is the first in the 25-point era.
She made #4 in SportsCenter’s Top 10 highlights over the weekend. Her plans are to graduate in December. Play internationally in the spring and will probably be on Team USAs roster for the 2020 summer Olympics.
Will not surprise me if Cincinnati gets on a roll in the NCAAs. Other than Thompson, they are young and starting to put it all together.
