MURFREESBORO, Tenn. — The Middle Tennessee volleyball team fell in five sets to New Mexico State Saturday at the Alumni Memorial Gym.
MTSU (15-7, 6-4 Conference USA) broke a streak of seven-consecutive wins at the AMG with the loss. The Aggies (12-11, 5-5) have now won three of their last four.
"We came out strong in the fourth set, but just let off the gas a little bit," head coach Alexa Keckler said. "We let them get comfortable [and] that was a big turning point."
Danit Cohen, who picked up both starts at setter on the weekend, put together her career-high performance with 38 assists. Jaslyn Reed also posted a career-high, connecting for 17 kills, which led the Blue Raiders.
Sophia Henry had 16 kills on the day and Logan Carr had 11, her highest mark since Sept. 6 versus Belmont, when she recorded 10.
Michaela Dlouhá had 10 blocks and Marianne Garcia had 14 digs on the defensive side of the net.
New Mexico State took the first set 25-21 before MTSU tied the match up in the second with a 25-23 victory. Carr picked up the decisive kill.
Middle Tennessee kept the momentum going in the third set, picking up a 25-16 win to go up 2-1. A Dlouhá kill was the decisive point.
The Aggies responded with a 25-21 win in the fourth set to tie the match at 2-2 and forced a fifth set.
New Mexico State closed the match with a 15-13 set win to end the weekend.
