  "account": "TEMPE—Arizona Wildcats volleyball coach Rita Stubbs made significant changes to the team's offensive system ahead of their match against No. 8 Arizona State University (ASU) on October 15, 2026. The decision to switch from a 6-2 to a 5-1 system proved beneficial, as it allowed senior forward Harmony Sample to excel as both a setter and hitter. Sample led the team with 12 points, while sophomore right side hitter Kennedy Osunsanmi contributed 11 kills, two blocks, and just one error. Arizona's defense and serve receive were also strong, with outside hitter Carlie Cisneros and junior Carlie Cisneros delivering 19 digs, 27 serve receptions, seven kills, and one block.\n\nJunior Hayden Reeder stepped up in the absence of Osunsanmi, recording four kills, three digs, and two blocks. Despite two early set losses, Arizona rebounded in the third set, ultimately securing a 3-1 victory.",
