OPENING VOLLEY

THE DIFFERENCE

• The Rams rallied back from a 19-14 hole in the second frame. Hartzell supplied three kills during a 9-4 VCU burst that gave the Rams a 23-22 edge. Consecutive right-handed strikes by Brangioni and Chambers closed out the 26-24 win
• VCU piled on 13 blocks and hit .294 in the contest

NOTABLE
