Now that postseason play was underway, any match could be the last one for Arizona seniors Zyonna Fellows and Malina Kalei Ua. The two players who came to Tucson together four years ago were fighting to ensure that Saturday’s match against UNLV wasn’t that final one, but it wasn’t to be.
The Wildcats came storming back from an 0-2 deficit to push the contest to five sets, but the Rebels recovered and took the 3-2 victory (25-22, 25-20, 17-25, 19-25, 15-9). UNLV moves onto the next round of the Women’s National Invitational Volleyball Championship.
