Box Score - Cal State Northridge 3, UC Riverside 2
Northridge, CA - After rallying back from a 2-0 deficit to force a fifth set, the UC Riverside volleyball team could not close out the match falling 3-2 at Cal State Northridge on Saturday night in Big West Conference action.
The Matadors (10-10, 4-4) won the first two sets 25-20 and 25-18, but the Highlanders (5-17, 2-6) won the next two 25-22 and 26-24 to force a fifth set. In the last frame, however, CSUN took an early lead and held on for the 15-8 victory.
Shelby LeDuff led UCR with a game-high 16 kills while Amanda Vialpando added 15 and Bianca Endersby had 10. Four Highlanders players recorded double-digit digs led by Endersby's game-high 18.
With nine ties scores in the first set, UCR found themselves down by just one point, 21-20, late in the frame. Unfortunately for the Highlanders, three errors and one Matador kill contributed to a 25-20 victory for CSUN.
Cal State Northridge took an early lead in the second set and held on taking a 2-0 lead in the match with a 25-18 win.
In the third set, the Highlanders turned an 11-10 deficit into a 15-11 advantage thanks to three CSUN errors and a Vialpando kill.
The Matadors would tie the set at 16, but UCR took a 19-18 lead and never let go, winning 25-22.
The fourth set was even more of a back-and-forth battle with 11 tie scores and seven lead changes. CSUN led 20-16 late in the set, but the Highlanders rallied for three straight to get within one, 20-19.
The Matadors countered with three points of their own to go up 22-19, but again the Highlanders responded with kills by Endersby and Annishia McKoy to tie the set at 22 and force CSUN into calling timeout.
The teams traded points until 24-24 when a Vialpando kill and a McKoy service ace tied the match at 2-2 for the Highlanders with a 26-24 victory.
Cal State Northridge opened up the fifth set turning a 4-3 lead into an 8-3 advantage. The Highlanders got to within three, 11-8, but that was all the scoring they would do the rest of the match as the Madators scored four straight to win 15-8.
The Highlanders begin the second portion of their Big West schedule at Long Beach State on Friday, October 28 at 7:00 pm in Long Beach, CA.
