Athens, Ohio — The University of Toledo volleyball team wrapped up its weekend on the wrong end of a three-set sweep at Ohio on Saturday, falling 3-0 to the Bobcats.

Two players had a team-high seven kills for the Rockets – junior Emma Swope and freshman Olivia Vance. Freshman Ryann Jaqua and junior Rhyen Neal tied for the team lead with 11 digs. Sophomores Maddie Fogg and Megan Beasley both saw time at setter, tallying 15 and 11 assists, respectively.

Toledo returns home next weekend to face Bowling Green and Miami.

Set 3 (Ohio, 25-22)
Toledo flipped the script a bit in the third set and hit better than it had in the previous two sets. Trailing 11-8, the Rockets surged ahead and took a 19-14 lead over the Bobcats; it was a kill off the hand of Swope that put UT up by five.

OU ended up winning the third set, 25-22, and taking the match in three sets.
