5 straight points from Lennon! 15-9

Rice wins the first set, 26-16.

Dominant performance by Lennon and the entire Rice team.

WKU starting the 2nd strong, 1-4. Now 2-7. Ugh

After hitting .615 in the first, Rice is currenlty at -.125 in the 2nd. 3-9.

2nd set starting to get away. 6-13.

What a turnaround...and not in a good way...7-17. Can we restart the 2nd?? Blocking disappeared.

Kostelecky checks in to try to get some blocking...

10-21...and that's with 3 service errors by WKU.

Where did they find these fruit cake announcers?

14-25

OK, shake it off and come back playing like the 1st set!

The color commentator is Fred Chao, the ODU women's volleyball coach.

We have no answer for Matthews. 3-5 in the 3rd.

Service error and bad set by Rice, 7-11.

I understand we want to have a balance attack...but go to Lennon! She's had like 2 kills since the first.

Rice calls timeout as Matthews gets her 16th kill. 12-15

22-25...on to the 4th.

Tough fought 3rd set ... 22-25.

The play-by-play announcer said his name, and it sounded like "Chip Rare" ... but I haven't found any info on him (using spellings such as Rare, Rear, O'Rear, O'Rare ...)

Maruska should not have the same number of attempts as Lennon.

Lennon's spikes are lethal, but not her soft "attacks".
