With one kill from senior outside hitter Kelsey Bittinger, the Kent State volleyball team tied their match against Bowling Green (15-10, 11-3 Mid-American Conference), 2-2, at the end of the fourth set.
The Flashes (5-20, 3-11 MAC) finally got to see a fifth set for only the fourth time this season. Unfortunately, Kent State fell 15-9 in that set, losing to the Falcons 3-2 (25-18, 25-20, 25-19, 25-14, 15-9).
"We closed strong in the fourth,” coach Don Gromala said. “Our serve really got them out of rhythm. It was an unfortunate result, but I liked how the team fought and battled tonight.
