SPRINGFIELD, Mo. - Purdue Fort Wayne women's volleyball fell to Missouri State 3-0 (25-21, 25-12, 25-19) on Thursday night (Sept. 11).

The Mastodons were tight with the Bears after a kill and block from Riley Rosneck to make it 21-20 MSU in the first set, but the home team had a 3-0 push to get a set point. Set two was all Missouri State after the Bears went on a 9-2 opening run.
After winning a challenge in set three, the Mastodons went on a 5-0 run, capped off by an ace from Trinity Rye. The Bears answered with a 5-0 run of their own that included two aces. They got three more kills the rest of the way to take the match.
Becky Barrett had 13 digs for the 'Dons.
Missouri State improved to 3-4, while Purdue Fort Wayne fell to 1-6. The Mastodons and Bears will meet again on Friday night (Sept. 12) at 7 p.m. ET.
