East Peoria, Ill. - The 10th-ranked ICC Volleyball program (27-10) seems to be finding a rhythm, and at the home stretch of regular season play, it's appropriately timed. While celebrating Sophomore Day on Saturday, the Cougars rattled off a pair of in-region wins over Rend Lake and John Wood. That sets up a critical battle at Lincoln Land on Wednesday. A win for the Cougars over the Loggers, and they host the District Tournament in November. The usual statistical leaders are below.
