The No. 8 Husky volleyball team was tested at home Sunday against an upset-minded Utah squad. Washington (19-4, 10-4 Pac-12) found itself in a 0-2 hole before taking down the Utes (12-15, 3-11 Pac-12) 20-25, 17-25, 25-19, 25-20, 15-11.

It was the first 0-2 comeback of the season for UW and the first at Alaska Airlines Arena in coach Jim McLaughlin's 12 years.

Washington will have a quick turnaround as it heads to the Bay Area for a Wednesday match against California at 7 p.m. on ESPNU.

"It took us a while to wake up," said McLaughlin in a team release. "We did not play well in any phase of the game, but we found a way to win, which is a good thing."
