UNIVERSITY OF DUBUQUE QUAD - DUBUQUE, IOWA

back from 14-10 down in the final set. Three errors from the Dutch and a big kill

This comeback was largely due in part to the timeout called by Head Coach Jenna Ness after the team went down 13-10. This timeout provided the team time to L, 3-2 W, 3-0 regroup and buckle down in order to complete the comeback. W, 3-0 L, 3-1

The Duhawks had no easy road to the conference tournament this season, needing to win at home in either 3 or 4 sets against University of Dubuque in order to keep their season alive. Jenna Ness and her squad came out strong in this L, 3-0 one as the Duhawks quickly took the first two sets (25-20, and 25-13). UD took L, 3-0 the third set (25-19) which left just one set left for the Duhawks to earn a spot in the conference tournament. Despite an early lead for UD in the decisive fourth L, 3-1 set, Loras battled back to win (25-18) behind a kill from junior Taylor Serrano and an ace from sophomore Jenna Erickson and earn the fifth seed in the Iowa Conference Tournament. L, 3-1
