CARLINVILLE, IL -- The Blackburn College Volleyball team hosted NAIA foe St. Mary of the Woods College Tuesday night but were unable to defeat the Pomeroys.

Blackburn held a 17-15 lead in the first set, but the guest came out of a time out with eight straight points before winning the opener 25-20. The second set demonstrated why SMWC is now 29-2 on the season. BC was close to capturing the set with a 24-22 lead, but the Pomeroys rallied for four straight points and won the set 26-24.
