Hitting errors hamper No. 18 Rangers in loss to (RV) Central Washington

SAN BERNARDINO, Calif. — The No. 18 ranked Regis University volleyball team concluded its first non-conference tournament of 2023 on Saturday, falling by a 3-0 final to (RV) Central Washington University during the final day of the Yotes Classic Showcase, hosted by CSU San Bernardino.

Regis (2-2 overall) and Central Washington (2-2 overall) finish the four-match tournament at .500. The Rangers picked up a pair of victories on Friday against No. 15 Western Washington and No. 9 Cal State LA.

HOW IT HAPPENED
With the Rangers holding a 21-18 lead late in the first set, Central Washington was able to mount a comeback with a 7-2 blitz to steal Set One and the early momentum, 25-23.

The Wildcats rode that momentum into Set Two, jumping out to a 6-1 lead en route to a 25-00 win that put the Rangers in a 2-0 hole.

Unfortunately for the Rangers, they were unable to mount a rally in Set Three as Central Washington was able to build a 10-5 cushion and keep Regis at a jabbers' distance the rest of the way en route to winning the third set, 25-19.

GAME NOTES

Graduate student right-side hitter Klaudia Sowizral led all Rangers with nine kills on 18 swings while posting a team-best .389 hitting percentage.
Central Washington was able to take advantage of a tough offensive night for the Rangers as they committed 26 attack errors and hit .033 while the Wildcats limited their errors to 12 and hit .220 for the match.
The Wildcats finished with slim edges in blocks (9.0 to 7.0) and digs (32-31).
Graduate student libero Haley Kennedy paced the Regis back row with nine digs, while fellow fifth-year Mara LeGrand added eight digs and 21 assists from the setter position.
