Last week, Nov. 19 and 21, the Women\u2019s Volleyball team played in their final games of the season.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Wolves started by playing against Concordia University \u2014 a team that beat them previously in season on Sept. 17.<\/span><\/p>\n

Western\u2019s only offense depended on their hitting, their percentage one of the best this season. During the first set, the Wolves gained a lead but fell shortly after, and the Cavaliers took the lead and carried it throughout the rest of that set.<\/span><\/p>\n

Although the Wolves lost, there were multiple pivoting points throughout the match that gave the Cavaliers a run for their money.<\/span><\/p>\n

The second set saw the Wolves hold the Cavaliers \u2014 until the Cavaliers broke out and scored 8 of the 10 points. Western had a hard time scoring due to Concordia\u2019s strong defensive wall that continued to challenge the Wolves throughout the game.<\/span><\/p>\n

Highlight player for the Wolves was Sianna DeCarli, a junior outside hitter, who had 11 kills \u2014 an attack by a player that is not returned by the receiving opponent, which leads directly to a point \u2014 the only Wolf that night to get more than four kills.<\/span><\/p>\n

The second game was a sweet sendoff for the Wolves\u2019 only senior player, Allyson Crisp.<\/span><\/p>\n

Western took on Montana State University Billings on Nov. 21 for the Wolves\u2019 senior game, and final game of their 2019 season.<\/span><\/p>\n

Not only did this game end the Wolves\u2019s season with a win, it sent their senior player, Crisp, to the Western Oregon record books.<\/span><\/p>\n

The first set the Yellowjackets took the win, but not without the Wolves making a great comeback. The second set was a pepper of a match, with the Yellowjackets gaining and then falling to, to end with the Wolves ahead and their first set win.<\/span><\/p>\n

The rest of the game saw the Wolves winning to have the Yellowjackets follow with a win \u2014 but in the end the Wolves dug dipper and pulled through to bring home their fifth win of the season.<\/span><\/p>\n

An overall rough season for this Women\u2019s Volleyball team that challenged and tested them every game \u2014 but a wonderful finish to leave the Wolves howling.<\/span><\/p>\n
