No. 14 USC outlasts CU Buffs volleyball in five sets

Wins won't come easily in the Pac-12 Conference for the Colorado volleyball team. That's why Sunday's missed opportunity might be one that stings the Buffaloes.

CU narrowly missed defeating its second ranked foe in four days, but instead the Buffs fell short in dropping a five-set decision against No. 14 USC at the CU Events Center. Coming off a five-set win Wednesday against Utah, the Buffs missed an opportunity to start 2-0 in Pac-12 play for the first time since joining the league in 2012.

The Buffs haven't started 2-0 in any league since 2006 in the Big 12 Conference.
