Despite winning its first two sets, the Fresno State women’s volleyball team suffered its second consecutive conference loss to San Jose State 2-3 this past Saturday.
The match puts the ‘Dogs at 6-8 overall and 0-2 in Mountain West competition.
“We’re really young and still learning how to win with confidence. We need to work on being able to put pressure on teams and rebound when we’re down,” said Fresno State head coach Abbie Wright.
The ‘Dogs spent the first set battling for the lead, eventually grinding out a 29-27 victory. The two teams continued trading blows as each struggled to pull away, with Preslee Lillard’s fifth kill of the set sealing the win for Fresno State.
