Game Recap: Women's Volleyball |

VSU drops two to WVSU

Institute, W. Va.- The Virginia State University volleyball team traveled up to Institute to take on the Yellow Jackets of West Virginia State University for a pair of matches.  The Trojans dropped both matches in 3-0 fashion (25-15, 25-21, 25-18 G1) and (25-13, 25-20 and 25-17 G2) 

Game 1 

  • After an early 4-4 tie WVSU went on to score the next four points, doubling the Trojans 8-4 in the first set. 

  • West Virginia State was the first team into double figures as they grew their lead to 14-9. 

  • The Trojans could never maintain momentum as their deficient in the first set continued to grow eventually dropping set 1, 25-15 

  • In Set 2 both teams were evenly match playing to an early 5-5 tie, before the Yellow Jackets would win three of the next four points to take an 8-6 advantage. 

  • VSU would find themselves down 13-8, before they rattled off four quick points, thanks to a service error by West Virginia State, a kill by Kennedy Hoge and two attach errors by WVSU. 

  • The Yellow Jackets answered by going on a 4-1 run to increase their margin to 17-13. 

  • VSU would tie the game at 20 all thanks to Hoge, Peyton Resse, two by Hele Eubanks and De'Mya Robinson. 

  • However, WVSU would score 5 of the last six points to go up 2 sets to zero (25-21) 

  • The third set saw VSU gather its first lead of the match when an attack error by WVSU gave them a slim 9-8 advantage. 

  • After that WVSU pulled away and took the first match in three straight sets 25-15, 25-21 and 25-18. 

  • Hoge lead the team with seven kills, Robinson wasn't far behind with six and Resse dished out 20 assists 

Game 2 

  • VSU dropped the second game in straight sets as well (25-13, 25-20 and 25-17) 

  • The second set was a back-and-forth affair until the Trojans went on a 4-0 run to take the lead 15-14 

  • Unfortunately, the Yellow Jackets would score five straight points to take a 21-17 lead late and rode the momentum to win the set 

  • Both the first and third set were controlled by WVSU and VSU could never fully take the momentum 

With the two losses Virginia State moves to 1-6 overall ans West Virginia State moves up to 8-3 overall. The Trojans will stay in West Virginia as they play another MEC opponent in the Concord Mountain Lions tomorrow at 11 A.M.
