Volleyball falls to WMU, eliminated from MAC Tournament

Senior outside hitter Jordan Bueter, bottom, dives for the ball at the CMU volleyball game against Akron on Oct. 21 in McGuirk Arena.

Central Michigan volleyball’s season ends with a loss to rival Western Michigan 3-2 on Thursday, Nov. 16 at Millett Hall in Oxford, Ohio.

The Chippewas have been eliminated from the 2017 Mid-American Conference Tournament, while WMU faces Ball State tomorrow at 7 p.m.

“We’re disappointed,” head coach Mike Gawlik said. “I thought we started the match well. When Western pushed back I’m not sure our push was good enough.”

WMU opened the first set with a 4-point lead, putting the Chippewas in a tough spot.
