The OU volleyball team beat Arkansas 3-2 (22-25, -19, -15, 21-25, 15-10) Tuesday in Fayetteville, Ark.

Junior Suzy Boulavsky led the Sooners with 22 kills, a new career best. Senior Sarah Freudenrich added 14 kills.

The team had a .325 hitting percentage, its highest this season, thanks to setter Brianne Barker's guidance. Barker's 57 assists set a new career high for the junior, and her 12 digs secured her fourth double-double this season.

The Sooners played solid team defense as five players notched double-digit digs.

After dropping the first set, the Sooners rallied to win the second, third and fifth sets.

OU (5-3) continues on its streak of road games Friday and Saturday at the Dr. Mary Jo Wynn Invitational in Springfield, Mo.
