Sean Huiet told his players all week UT Arlington’s only goal this weekend was to ruin No. 11 Texas State’s season.
The Mavericks succeeded in part, sweeping the Bobcats 3-0 (25-23, 25-20, 25-18) inside Strahan Arena on Saturday. The loss snapped a 17-match winning streak for the maroon and gold and kept the team from winning its third-consecutive Sun Belt regular season championship.
But Texas State’s season isn’t over. The Bobcats will still be the No. 1 seed from the West Division in the conference tournament and they still have a chance to pick up a title. The loss, Huiet hopes, will be a wake-up call.
