Oklahoma junior outside hitters Suzy Bouvlasky and Caitlin Higgins notched 14 kills apiece as the Sooners scored an upset victory over the No. 14 Cyclone (24-26, 25-21, 25-20, 25-23) at McCasland Field House in Norman, Okla.

The loss marks the first time the Cyclones have lost consecutive matches to unranked opponents since losing to New Mexico and Arizona State in September of 2007.

ISU senior outside hitter Victoria Henson led Iowa State with 21 kills and broke the ISU all-time mark for kills as she finished the match with 1,625 for her career, passing Kristen Hugdahl’s previous record of 1,620. Junior Carly Jenson posted her 10th double-double of the season, chipping in with 16 kills and leading the team in digs with 18.

The Cyclones will be back in action on Tuesday night when they host Colorado (6-17, 3-14 Big 12) at Hilton Coliseum at 7 p.m.
