Homecoming Weekend Starts With a Win

Related Topics: Virginia, Tamara Otene

After the opening act that was the Mini-500 provided its usual lack of speed and broken trikes, the AVCA #10 Georgia Tech Volleyball squad swept Virginia in an unnecessary nailbiter. The sets went 27-25, 25-11, and 25-21.

As the first set score indicates, Tech did not have their ducks in a row, combining service errors with poor ball flight judgment that allowed the Cavaliers to stay close. After a Tech timeout at 23-23, Pimentel had her 22nd return error of the season, giving Virignia a set point. Bergmann came through with one of her blistering kills that saved set point and put Tech on their way a set win.
