TUCSON, Ariz. -- Arizona volleyball dropped its first match of Senior Week to No. 23 UCLA, dropping the Wednesday afternoon meeting in three sets (25-20, 27-25, 25-22).
The Cats kept each set close and hit .242 as team, but had trouble slowing down UCLA's high-powered offense, which hit .282, led by Mac May's 21 kills on .439 hitting.
Paige Whipple had another big match for Arizona, finishing with 21 kills on .246 hitting and adding six digs and two blocks. It is Whipple's 14th straight match with at least 13 kills; she'll enter Saturday's match vs. ASU seven kills shy of 1,000 for her career; she is trying to become the seventh player in school history reach 1,000 kills in her junior season.
