DAYTON, Ohio -- Wright State rallied from a two-sets-to-one deficit for a 17-25, 25-20, 25-14, 21-25, 10-15 win over Wichita State on Saturday afternoon at McLin Gymnasium.

The Raiders (7-3) won despite hitting .034 for the match, as the Shockers committed 16 service errors and 31 attack errors. Wright State controlled the opening set, turning an 8-8 tie into an 18-11 lead that prompted a Wichita State timeout. WSU fought back to within four on two different occasions, including 20-16, but Wright State finished with a flurry to take a 25-17 opening set.

The Shockers (5-6) calmed things down with a strong second set, highlighted by seven kills from Sophia Rohling. Wichita State also got six blocks in the set, holding Wright State to a .000 hitting percentage. WSU never trailed in the frame, bursting to a 10-4 lead and keeping Wright State at arm's length the rest of the way. Back-to-back kills from Morgan Weber and Brylee Kelly reestablished a six-point cushion at 18-12, and Sophie Childs came off the bench late for a kill that kept the lead comfortable. A Callie Martin attack error eventually nailed down the set for the Shockers, 25-20.

In the third, Wichita State found an offensive rhythm. Four different Shockers had three or more kills, including Morgan Stout's five. Though the Shockers never trailed in the set, it was a 5-0 burst at the service line from Morgan Weber that put WSU firmly in control at 12-6. The lead eventually swelled to ten following a solo block from Childs, and another block from Stout and Weber gave Wichita State a 2-1 lead with a 25-14 win.

Wichita State was out of the gates quickly in the fourth, taking a 10-7 lead. Wright State answered with a set-defining run, rattling off six in a row to flip a three-point deficit into a three-point lead. The Shockers later battled back to within 19-18 when Kelly slammed a kill, but the Raiders regrouped out of a timeout to win three of the next four points and see the set out, 25-21.

The fifth was deadlocked 10-10 when Stout came through with consecutive blocks to erase an early deficit, but Wright State again had the answer out of a timeout, scoring five straight points to win the match.

Rohling led the way offensively with 18 kills, while Lily Liekweg set a new season high with 23 digs. Morgan Weber had 22 digs of her own, and Kayce Litzau delivered 48 assists and four service aces.
