THE BASICS:
A hot start wasn't enough as the Lions (9-16, 2-3 HCAC) fell in four sets to Manchester University (8-14, 3-4 HCAC) by a score of 17-25, 25-20, 25-21, 25-21.
HOW IT HAPPENED

A 17-kill performance by Courtney Chowning led the way for the Spartans. Fifteen service errors doomed the Lions in the match.
