WOMEN'S VOLLEYBALL: Ball State ends regular season with victory over Akron

After dominating the first set 25-15, it looked as if the Ball State women's volleyball team would cruise to a convincing victory against the visiting Akron Zips. Akron gave Ball State all it candle, however, but the Cardinals ultimately held on for a 3-1 win in the team’s last regular season match before the conference tournament. “They started playing the kind of volleyball they’re very capable of playing,” head coach Steve Shondell said.
