Bulls Fall To Ball State

Lizaiha Garcia

UB was led by senior Nikki Morzenti (Safety Harbor, FL/Clearwater), who one night ago became the fifth player in UB volleyball history to join the 1,000-kill, 1,000-dig club. Morzenti joined fellow teammate Jenna Mapé (Calgary, Alberta/Father Lacombe) with a team-high 12 kills. Morzenti added 10 digs on the evening for her third straight double-double. Junior Lizaiha Garcia (Dayton, OH/Beavercreek) led UB with a team-high 17 digs.

Sarah Streib

Junior Sarah Streib (Baldwinsville, NY/Baldwinsville) gave UB a spark off the bench as she finished with a team-high two services aces and chipped in three digs. UB outblocked its opponents by a six-to-three margin, receiving four block assists from sophomores Claudia Neba (Aurora, CO/Smoky Hill/Rutgers) and Rachel Smith (Churchville, NY/Churchville).

Ball State (6-10, 3-1 MAC) was led by a match-high 15 kills from Kelly Cochran, who was one of three Cardinals with double-digit kills. Amanda McCormick had 21 digs on the night, while Cochran completed the double-double with 17 digs.

UB now hits the road for five straight matches, beginning at Miami (OH) on Friday, Oct. 6 at 7:00 pm. The Bulls then head to Bowling Green the following day for a 3:00 pm contest with the Falcons.
