The 22nd ranked University of Mary Washington volleyball team dropped a three game decision at Ithaca College on Friday night. The Eagles slip to 4-6 on the season; game scores were 25-19, 25-23, 25-14.

In the first, UMW fell behind early, 6-1, bur scored three straight to trim the deficit to 6-4. A pair of Bomber miscues trimmed the margin to 10-8, but the Eagles would draw no closer in a 25-19 loss.

In the second, UMW started with an early 3-1 lead, but seven straight Ithaca points gave the hosts a 6-3 lead. Ithaca led, 21-14, before the Eagles scored four straight to cut the margin to three. UMW scored three more points after an Ithaca point, and trailed, 22-21. But the Bombers closed out the set by scoring three of the last five points.

Mary Washington was led by Savannah Powers' 10 kills and Peyton Dunow's six. Wren Berry scored 16 assists and Kendal Hall added nine, while Ryan Cho scored 11 digs.

The Eagles will compete again at Ithaca tomorrow with a pair of matches.
