Redbirds Fall in Tournament Finale

DAYTON, Ohio – Playing tournament host Dayton – a team that ranked as high as 24th in the AVCA Coaches Poll earlier this season – the Illinois State volleyball team closed play at the Dayton Flyer Invitational – and the 2025 non-conference season – falling in three sets to the Flyers.

HOW IT HAPPENED

First Set (15-25): ISU started fast, scoring three of the first four points; however, the host Flyers fought back, and used a stretch where the team scored six of seven points, taking a lead that the Flyers would not give up in the opening-set.
