Pullman, Wash. – Junior Camille Saxton (Balzac, Alberta) tallied a team-high 11 kills with four blocks, but the Oregon State volleyball team (11-4, 3-2 Pac-12) fell in three (25-16, 25-23, 25-18) on Friday evening to Washington State (10-5, 2-3 Pac-12) in Bohler Gym.
“First of all, they served us off the court in sets one and two,” head coach Taras Liskevych said. “At the end of the second set, that may be the worst we've passed in a match. We just had people that really did not step up to this occasion, and we had so many balls hit at us that we didn't dig. And despite all that it was 23 all in the second set. If we had won that set, it's a totally different match. Right now, need to just find a way to sustain siding out and controlling the ball on our side of the net.”
Redshirt freshman Allie Rogers (Eugene, Ore.) hit .417 with six kills and three blocks to lead the Beavers offensively, while junior Ashley Eneliko (Seattle, Wash.) added six kills and four blocks.
Leading the Beavers' defensive efforts, freshman Arica Nassar (Menifee, Calif.) posted a match-high five blocks with sophomore Becky Defoe (Bend, Ore.) digging eight balls.
Washington State's Meagan Ganzer paced all hitters with 18 kills, while libero Jordan Levenseller had 17 digs.
Oregon State wraps its trip to the north at No. 3 Washington on Saturday at 7:00 p.m. in Alaska Airlines Arena.
