LONG BEACH, Calif. - The Tulsa volleyball team snapped its four-game losing streak and kept the 2019 campaign alive with a four-set win over UC Davis [20-25, 25-13, 26-24, 25-20] in the first round of the National Invitational Volleyball Championship (NIVC). The Golden Hurricane (16-15, 8-8 The American) played their first round match at Walter Pyramid on the campus of Long Beach State.

After the Aggies (17-13, 9-7 Big West) won the opening set, the Golden Hurricane rallied to win the final four sets, including a nail-biting third game. The win marks Tulsa's first postseason victory since 2011.
