When I spoke to the team they laughed because they knew I was going to talk about response. That was what we are capable of playing like and it’s fun to watch. It’s a beautiful, fluid thing that happens out there. We’re capable of playing really good volleyball, and we’re going to push to do that the rest of the season.”Junior opposite hitter Logan Lednicky led A&amp;M with 18 kills and hit at a .538% clip. She surpassed 1,000 career kills on the afternoon and became the 20th Aggie all-time to reach that mark.“It’s kind of surreal,” Lednicky said in the release. “I never thought I would be playing volleyball at Texas A&amp;M. I owe all of my success to my teammates, coaches and support around me. This truly is a special place and I’m so happy to be here.”As a team, A&amp;M hit .315% for the game. Arkansas hit just .119%. Junior outside hitter Emily Hellmuth had 16 kills and 13 digs. Junior middle blocker Ifenna Cos-Okpalla added nine kills and had a team-high six blocks. Junior setter Maddie Waack had 37 assists. Junior libero Ava Underwood had 13 digs and 11 assists.Arkansas pulled ahead in the first set as the Aggies rallied within 24-22, but the Razorbacks closed it out to pull ahead 1-0. The teams were tied at 23 in the second set, but Hellmuth notched a kill and an ace to tie the match 1-1.The third set is where A&amp;M took control of the match. The Aggies raced to an 8-1 lead with Waack’s strong service. A&amp;M finished off the set with a 10-2 run. Six points was the fewest an A&amp;M opponent has scored in a single set this season.The Aggies and Hogs were tied at 8 in the fourth set when A&amp;M found a rhythm to pull away. The Aggies finished the match on a 5-2 run.“We talk a lot about how it’s more than just you,” Hellmuth said in a release. “Looking at the teammate next to you, cheering on the teammate next to you, picking up the teammate next to you, that is what you do to get out of your own head. I know everyone is probably feeling a little shaky since we lost the last five sets in a row, but leaning on each other, looking each other in the eyes, and giving to teammates helped us get going.”The Aggies will face Texas on Wednesday at Gregory Gym in Austin. A&amp;M lost to its rival 3-1 to open SEC play on Sept. 27. The Longhorns (12-3, 7-0 SEC) have won nine straight matches.</div></body>
