KENT, OH – The University at Buffalo volleyball team continued its five-match road trip with a 3-0 defeat at Kent State University, Friday night at the M.A.C. Center. The Bulls had their chance again, especially in game three as the score was tied on 18 different occasions in that game. The Bulls had a 24-23 advantage in the third game before Kent State went on a 7-1 run to close out the night.

The Golden Flashes took the match, 30-21, 30-20, 30-25 as they hit .307 for the match, compared to just .186 for the Bulls. Freshman Richelle Bigelow (Littleton, CO/Dakota Ridge) led the way for the Bulls as she had 15 kills, eight digs and one solo block on the night. Sophomore Maria Mezzadri (Livonia, MI/Livonia Stevenson) had seven kills and just one error on 19 total swings, while freshman Kristin Bignell (Drayton, Ontario/Norwell District) was also extremely efficient as she had six kills and just one error on the night. Freshman Lindsey Schlegel (Lancaster, NY/Lancaster) had 29 assists and was one of three UB players to record double-digit digs as she had 14. Senior Lizaiha Garcia (Dayton, OH/Beavercreek) led the way with 16 digs, while junior Claudia Neba (Aurora, CO/Smoky Hill/Rutgers) added 11 digs and six kills on the night.
