The Southern Miss volleyball team (8-9, 2-2 C-USA) is moving closer to .500 on the season following a three-set victory against Middle Tennessee State (4-11, 0-3 C-USA) on Sunday afternoon.
MTSU managed to jump out to an early lead in set one over the Golden Eagles, but the team eventually came out ahead. Down 8-6 at one point, the team went on an 8-1 run in the set to take control. MTSU tied the set up 26-26 near the end, but two MTSU attack errors helped Southern Miss come out with the 28-26 win.
