INDIANAPOLIS - The Purdue Fort Wayne women's volleyball team fell to IU Indianapolis on Tuesday (Sept. 30) in a Horizon League contest 3-0 (25-17, 25-21, 25-22).
Trinity Rye was a bright spot early for the 'Dons, going errorless over her first 18 swings with seven kills. She finished with a team-high nine kills.

The Mastodons had a 15-11 lead in the second set after a kill from Haiden Means and a block from Mya Plemons and Riley Rosneck. They reached the media timeout first, but the Jaguars went on a 7-1 after the break, taking an 18-16 lead. The 'Dons tied it back up at 18 after a block from Plemons and Avery Parris, but IU Indy had a 7-3 push over the finishing 10 points of the set to go up 2-0.

Grace Purichia dished out 38 assists for IU Indy.
Haiden Means had a double-double of 22 assists and 10 digs for the 'Dons.
