FAIRFAX, Va. – Volleyball dropped its penultimate game of the regular season on Wednesday, falling to George Mason 3-1. Junior Elizabeth Osborn led the Explorers with 16 kills.

HOW IT HAPPENED

La Salle started stronger, going up 9-5. George Mason then answered emphatically in the middle of the set via a 16-5 run to lead by seven. La Salle claimed the next three out of four points to slice the gap to four, but the Patriots saw the set out.
George Mason got off to a 7-2 start in the second set and didn't look back. The Explorers would close to within three on a few occasions, but a strong middle of the set from the hosts opened the game up at 18-9. The Blue & Gold embarked on a rally, closing the score to 21-15, parried by a George Mason run to conclude the frame.
The teams traded points at the beginning of the third with neither gaining much separation. That changed when La Salle, down 11-10, recorded the next seven of eight points to go up five. The Patriots narrowed the gap to 20-18, but the away side held off the hosts to take the third.
La Salle battled George Mason in the fourth and held an early 6-5 lead, which was erased by a large Patriots run of nine unanswered points. The home team continued to separate, at one point leading 21-12. The Explorers put up a fight, tallying eight of the next 11 to close the gap to 24-20, but a George Mason kill concluded the match.
