3rd year setter and team captain Anna Cupido showed why she is one of the top setters in PACWEST this past weekend as she quarterbacked the CBC Bearcats to a sweep over the Douglas College Royals. Cupido dished out 43 assists on Friday night and added 56 more on Saturday as the Bearcats improved to 10-6 in the PACWEST standings.
Cupido’s exceptional ball distribution led to three Bearcat hitters with double figure kills each night as the Bearcats diverse offense kept a solid and much improved Douglas College team out of the win column. The third year setter added 9 kills & 4 aces to her 99 assists but the real story was how she accomplished those numbers while racking up 25 digs off of the Royals, who peppered the Bearcats setter by hitting balls into positions one and two consistently both nights.
“Anna is one of the best all around setters in the conference this year and continues to find ways to give her hitters lots of single block hitting opportunities week in and week out” noted Bearcats head coach Duncan Harrison. “She is an exceptional leader and a high achiever both on the court and in the classroom”.
