Miami bounced from NIVC to end season

Miami volleyball’s 2018 campaign ended Friday with what head coach Carolyn Condit called “our worst game of the season.”

The RedHawks (23-9) were eliminated from the National Invitational Volleyball Championship tournament (NIVC) by the Valparaiso Crusaders, who swept the second-round match in three straight sets.

“This was probably not our night,” Condit said. “We hadn’t played this poorly all year, so it was a tough one.”

After dominating Northern Kentucky in a three-set sweep on Thursday night – good for the RedHawks’ first postseason victory since 1998 – Miami looked fatigued and struggled to retain any momentum on Friday.
