At risk of dropping the opening set at No. 14 Minnesota, Maryland volleyball desperately needed some production out of its front row. Middle blocker Eva Rohrbach, the team’s leader in total blocks with 61, did exactly that.
Rohrbach leaped up with her teammate and outside hitter Sydney Bryant, combining for a block that cut the Maryland deficit to 22-20. This, however, was a rare occurrence for the Terps in the match, as they were thoroughly out-blocked, 19-2, in a straight-set loss on Saturday night.
“If you don’t take enough pressure, you just end up having a ton of offense back at you,” head coach Adam Hughes said.
