Box Score GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. – The Colorado Mesa women's volleyball team defeated Adams State 3-0 Friday (Oct. 4) at Brownson Arena. The loss was the first for the Grizzlies in conference play this season. The Mavericks improve to 11-2 overall and 4-1 in league play.

"Tonight was a good win against a good team, but we have to get ready for Western State tomorrow," said head coach Dave Fleming.

CMU used a balanced attack offensively with Christian Otzen and Erin Perez each finishing with a team-high nine kills. Abby Ney hit .412 with eight kills and one error for Mesa who hit .229 in the match.

Erin Perez and Sunni Rae Baird each finished with a match-high 13 digs in the win.

Baird also factored heavily into the team's serving game. The senior libero did not record a service ace in the match but her tough serves led to several runs for the Mavericks.

Adams State was led by Deprece Washington who recorded a match-high 12 kills.

Colorado Mesa will host Western State Saturday (Oct. 5) at 7 pm.
