The Austin volleyball team couldn’t make up for Rochester John Marshall’s size in a 25-16, 25-21, 25-15 loss in Packer Gym Thursday.
The Packers (2-12 overall, 0-5 Big Nine) got into their offense, but didn’t find a lot of openings.

“We played O.K. but they have a pretty decent offense and they have a couple of big outside hitters,” Austin head coach Darica Schneider said. “We hustled and we dove after balls, but when they’re bigger and they know how to cut it across, it’s a tough situation.”
Austin stats: Babaye Oja, 9 kills, 3 aces; Haley Underwood, 6 kills, 9 digs; Jenna Sovoboda, 10 assists; Kayla Rodgers, 9 assists; Ashley Follmuth, 8 digs, 23 serve receives; Meredith Molhusen, 1 solo ace block
