4/6/2023 8:43:00 PM | Men's Volleyball
COLUMBUS, Ohio - The Purdue Fort Wayne men's volleyball team dropped a MIVA match 3-0 (25-14, 25-19, 25-15) to No. 13 Ohio State on Thursday (April 6).
Mark Frazier had a team-high eight kills, but Ohio State's offense was rolling all night. The Buckeyes finished the match with a .365 hitting percentage, including a .452 opening frame and .524 third.
The Mastodons led at just 1-0 in the opening set. Shortly after, Ohio State had an 8-1 run that the Buckeyes used to go up 13-6.
After an ace from Frazier in set two tied it at six, OSU rattled off 12-of-13 to take a 10-point lead. The Mastodons showed some life behind Davey Singer's service, which put them on a 6-0 run, but Ohio State's lead was enough to coast to the finish off late service errors.
Set three was Ohio State's from start to finish.
Player of the Year contender Jacob Pasteur had a match-high 14 kills with a .308 hitting clip.
Frazier finished with eight kills, three digs, three blocks and two aces.
Purdue Fort Wayne falls to 16-11 and 7-6 in the MIVA with just a match at Ball State on Saturday (April 8) left on the calendar. The Buckeyes move to 18-9 and 10-3 in the MIVA, keeping their chances at a share of the regular season championship alive.
