OAKLAND, CA -- UC Santa Cruz Men’s Volleyball team defeated Holy Names University on Friday night at Holy Names winning in four games, 30-25, 24-30, 30-22, and 30-24. The Slugs move to 10-6 over all and 3-1 at the Division III level.
Senior Outside Hitter Matt Smiley led the Slugs with 12 kills and 11 digs. Sophomore Middle Blocker Alex Schwartz had 9 kills and Junior Setter Eric Rowell contributed 40 assists.
In the first game the Slu gs played steady the entire game. Freshman Middle Blocker Travis Waddell got the start and helped the Slugs push through to win. Game two was a different story, Holy names put on an impressive blocking display and the Slugs were unable to recover.
Game three and four the Slugs attacking game reached a peak and Holy Names could not handle the heat. Senior Libero Jeff Hogg’s passing and digging kept the rest of the Slug’s game on track to win out the match.
