The Boston College women’s volleyball team continued with a difficult start to their season on Friday afternoon, dropping the first match of a weekend series with Syracuse 3-0. With this loss, the Eagles are now 0-5 in their abbreviated season.
Syracuse took a back-and-forth first set 25-21, using a four point run to open up a lead after BC had cut it to 17-16 at one point. The two teams were very evenly matched early on, but a few timely Syracuse runs put the Eagles in a hole early on.
The second set was more of the same, with BC going up 5-1 early on before Syracuse began to climb back into the set.
