DAYTON, Ohio - The Purdue Fort Wayne women's volleyball team took the Horizon League regular season champions to five sets on Saturday (Nov. 14), but fell 3-2 (23-25, 24-26, 25-17, 25-15, 25-12).
The Mastodons are one of three teams in the Horizon League to take two sets off the Raiders this season.
Riley Rosneck, Trinity Rye and Miona Dimitric all finished with double-digit digs in the marathon match. Rosneck led the way with 23, Rye had 20 and Dimitric added 10. Defensively, Becky Barrett led the match with 20 digs. Rye had 14 digs and Rosneck had 10, setting up both for double-doubles. Mya Plemons led the team with four blocks.
Plemons finished league play with a .488 hitting percentage, the league's highest-ever mark on record.
The story of the game came shortly into the fourth set. After Wright State took the third set to extend the match, the McLin Gymnasium was evacuated due to burning popcorn, shuttering any momentum the Mastodons had after winning the first two sets.
Rye had seven kills in the first set and six in the second. Rosneck had seven kills in the second set too to give the 'Dons a 2-0 lead.
The Mastodons and Raiders were even with 67 kills each. The Raiders led in blocks 15-8 and digs 67-62. The 'Dons hit .218, with a high-water mark of .348 in set five, but Wright State hit .325 with a .455 clip in the fifth.
Purdue Fort Wayne fell to 15-14, 9-7, while Wright State moved to 20-6, 15-1. The Mastodons will make a return trip to Dayton for the Horizon League Championship on Thursday (Nov. 19) for a match against Oakland at 3 p.m.
