The Bruins volleyball team was able to keep it close against Blinn in the first two sets but was unable to get over the hump and lost in the last set by six points in spite of a stellar effort by Ailin Donati who had 16 digs and 35 assists.
SLCC aced Laramie behind the service efforts from Baylie Henrie and Carol Grasso, who had four aces each.
Henrie had another three aces against Miami Dade as the Bruins extended their winning streak to two. Grasso used her athleticism to contribute 19 kills.
It was a block party against Hutchison as the Bruins combined for nine blocks against the Dragons and had them singing the blues as the Bruins ran their win streak to three. Grasso and Indigo Allen combined for 35 digs while Jillian Campbell had five kills in a single set.
The Bruins are now 8 and 4 on the season and will face competition on the road next weekend at Pizza Hut Invitational on Friday and Saturday, Sept. 13 and 14 in Sterling, CO.
