RIVERSIDE—The UC Riverside Women's Volleyball Team (5-15, 1-8) dropped a three set match to visiting UC Santa Barbara (18-2, 8-1) Saturday night, but the match was closer that the final score indicates with the Highlanders battling in each set. In the end, the Gauchos would take it 25-22, 25-18, 25-21.

The Highlanders had its opportunities in a match that saw 15 total ties and lead changes in just three sets. UCR would hold a lead in each of the three sets, but the Gauchos, who are tied at the top of the conference, would hold on.
