HONOLULU, Hawai'i - Junior Zana Muno tied for the fourth-most digs in a match in UCLA history with a career-high 34, while freshman Mac May led the 13th-ranked Bruins' offensive attack with 18 kills in a five-set win at #20 Hawai'i on Sunday at the Stan Sheriff Center. Set scores were 23-25, 25-23, 25-22, 22-25, 15-10.
May, who added nine digs and three aces, was one of four Bruins (3-0) to reach double figures in kills. Sophomore Madeleine Gates had a career-high 16 kills, freshman Jenny Mosser added 12 with four blocks and sophomore Kyra Rogers notched a personal-best 11 kills and only one error in 17 attempts (.588 hitting percentage – career high) to go with a career-best seven blocks. Senior Sarah Sponcil tallied a double-double for the second match in a row with a career-high 58 assists and 10 digs. Sophomore Savvy Simo added 12 digs and senior Reily Buechler had nine kills and 11 digs. The Bruins hit .251 for the match.
Despite a late comeback to make things interesting, the Bruins never led in set one. Leading 8-7, four in a row for Hawai'i (0-3) gave the home team a set-best lead of five at 12-7. The Rainbow Wahine still led by five at 18-13 before an 8-3 UCLA run evened the score at 21. May had two kills, Buechler and Mosser each posted one, Gates had a solo block and three Hawai'i errors knotted things up.
The score was tied again at 22 after another May kill, but the Rainbow Wahine netted the next two to earn a pair of set points. May's team-best sixth kill of the opener saved one set point, but the home team claimed the first by a score of 25-23. May did not commit an error in 12 attempts (.500 hitting percentage), Mosser was 4-for-7 with just one error (.429) and Rogers was 3-for-3 (1.000). Muno and Simo each added four digs, while Buechler had three kills. A great hitting set saw the Bruins get out-hit, .486 to .359.
Set two featured 12 ties and five lead changes, but in the end, the Bruins won it, 25-23, to even the match heading into intermission. Even at eight, the Bruins scored four in a row thanks to three blocks, with Rogers involved in all of them. The first was with Sponcil and the last two were with Mosser, with a Sponcil ace making it 12-8 UCLA. The four-point lead was the largest of the set for the Bruins, but the Rainbow Wahine responded with a 9-4 run to go back up 17-16.
Five of six for UCLA on kills by May and Rogers, a pair of Rogers combo blocks, first with Sponcil and then with Mosser, and a bad UH set put the Bruins up for good at 21-18. Hawai'i would tie the score at 22 and 23, but a Gates kill and a Simo ace closed out a 25-23 win. Gates had three kills to lead the Bruins, Muno added seven digs and Rogers notched five blocks, as the Bruins were out-hit, .136 to .108.
Set three was even closer, with 13 ties and five lead changes, but the Bruins won it to take the match lead. The biggest lead of set three for UCLA was four, while the largest for Hawai'i was just one. Trailing 8-7, a May kill and ace and a Buechler solo block put the Bruins up by a pair. The Rainbow Wahine came back to take a 15-14 edge, but a May kill, a Rogers solo stuff and a UH error put the Bruins up for good at 17-15.
At 17-all, a 5-1 UCLA run on a Buechler kill and block and kills by Rogers, Gates and Mosser made it 22-18. On their second set point, a Gates kill wrapped up the 25-22 win. Gates had five kills in the third, Buechler and May each added four and Mosser recorded three. Muno produced 10 digs. The Bruins out-hit the Rainbow Wahine, .229 to .159.
There were eight ties and four lead changes in set four, but Hawai'i pulled away to force a fifth set. Down 8-5, a UH error and two May kills evened things at eight. After a UH sideout, the Bruins scored three of the next four on two Rogers kills and a Rainbow Wahine error to go ahead 11-10. The lead would be short-lived, as Hawai'i netted the next three and didn't trail for the rest of the set, going on to win, 25-22. Gates had five kills to lead UCLA, May added four and Rogers notched three. Muno had eight digs. The Bruins were out-hit, .489 to .333.
Set five featured five ties and three lead changes. Hawai'i held a 5-3 lead before a Gates kill, a UH attack error and an over-pass kill by Muno put the Bruins up. The Rainbow Wahine netted the next three, but a May kill and Sponcil solo roof evened things at eight. Hawai'i still led by one at 10-9 before UCLA scored the last six of the match to win the fifth. Kills by Rogers, Buechler and Rogers again made it 12-10, which was followed by a Rogers/Mosser block, a Mosser kill and a UH attack error to wrap up a 15-10 win for the Bruins. Gates, May and Rogers each had two kills in the fifth, while Muno had five digs, as the Bruins out-hit the Rainbow Wahine, .214 to .000.
Up next for the Bruins is a two-match tournament in Las Cruces, N.M., as UCLA faces New Mexico State on Friday, Sept. 1 at 6 p.m. PT and UNLV on Saturday, Sept. 2 at 9 a.m. PT.
