UTA volleyball season falls short in Sun Belt Conference Championship

UTA’s volleyball season came to an end Friday in the Sun Belt Conference Championship.

The Mavericks (11-7, 10-6) dropped their second match of pool play against Troy University 3-1.

The Trojans commanded their way through the first set, limiting UTA to a 0.91 hitting percentage and setting the tone for the rest of the match. Troy won the first two sets 25-18 and 25-15, respectively.

The third set started off much like the first two. Troy led for most of the way, but UTA refused to be swept. After a couple of ties and lead changes, UTA solidified its lead with a 7-2 run to win the set 25-20.
