In a tough five set match, Rebel volleyball took the win Tuesday night against Eastern Kentucky University 3-2.
UNLV began the match with a close win in the first set 25-23. The Rebels fell to the Colonels the next two sets 23-25 and 27-29. After a brief intermission following the third set, the UNLV girls came back to win the next two sets, 25-21 and 15-11, and take the match.
The Rebels are a young team this year with 10 new players joining only three returners from the 2016 season. With little experience as a team, there were quite a few communication errors that led to confusion on the court.
