Yes, But

State of Play
  • Quincy has won four straight and completed its second consecutive sweep.
  • The Hawks will host UIS at Pepsi Arena on Saturday, Oct. 24, at 3 p.m., in a GLVC match.
  • The teams will also partner with NAMI for a Green Out supporting mental health awareness.
What's Next

Quincy gets a quick home rematch with UIS, with a chance to turn its recent momentum into a conference win.

Bottom Line

The sweep showed Quincy’s ability to recover under pressure—and its middle-hitter tandem could be a major factor when the stakes rise in the rematch.
