Volleyball Comes Up Short In Fifth Set

HEMPSTEAD, N.Y. – Unable to hold on to a 2-1 lead through three sets, UNCW dropped its fourth consecutive five-set decision as Hofstra edged the Seahawks (16-25, 25-13, 17-25, 26-24, 19-17) on Sunday at the Mack Physical Education Center.

The Pride upped its record to 11-7 overall and 4-2 in the Colonial Athletic Association. The Seahawks, meanwhile, fell to 11-8 and 1-5 in the league. After opening with a 4-0 mark in five set matches, the Seahawks have now dropped their last four.

The Seahawks held 23-21 lead in the fourth set before HU's Ana Martinovic keyed a 5-1 run with three kills.

In the final set, Hofstra bolted out to a quick 4-0 lead before the Seahawks were able to regroup and draw even at 7-all on a kill from Jaime Thomas. UNCW was able to tie the score several times and took its first lead at 16-15 following a Hofstra error. With it tied against at 17-all, Hofstra put the match away with a pair kills from Athina Dimitriadis.

Freshman Katie Lanz led UNCW with 14 kills while Kendall Bender added 11 and Madison Peters and Thomas chipping in 10 apiece.

HU's Laura Masciullo held match-high honors with 26 kills.

The Seahawks next visit conference -leading Towson on Oct. 18 for a 7 p.m. start.
