NM State Grinds Out Win in Five-Set Thriller

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. – New Mexico State volleyball took on Eastern Kentucky at the Dreamstyle Arena on Friday. The Aggies battled the Colonels to a five-set contest and came away with the 3-2 victory (25-18, 27-29, 25-27, 25-18, 15-9) at the Lobo Classic.

"We have a lot to iron out and a lot to figure out," head coach Mike Jordan said. "[With Savannah Davison] there were a lot of bright moments and a lot of tragic moments. She just need to do a better job of managing the game"
