DETROIT -- Trailing Lake Superior State two sets to none on Saturday inside the Matthaei, the Wayne State University volleyball team battled back to get the match to a fifth and deciding period.  There, the Lakers ended the set and match with a 4-1 run that ousted the Warriors.

"It was a disappointing loss today after crawling back in to the match," said head coach Tim Koth.  "Back to work on Monday.  We need to keep working to get better."

HOW IT HAPPENED (19-25, 20-25, -25, -19, 13-15)
