The ladies in 5 sets take down the front runners. Ohio has now won 5 of 6 and is tied for 3rd in the MAC. At No.2 Fiami tomorrow.

Go OHIO

Stub, we watched tonight also on ESPN3. BG had a decent(but not great) crowd. Can someone smarter at volleyball than I explain to us why someone like Tia Jimerson was seemingly subbed out for roughly 1/3 or 1/2 of the game when it was obvious we were in trouble without her?

I think I can help you out there, Ben. Tia cones out when she rotates to back row. As much of a force as she is with offense and blocking, we have better back row defenders and attackers. You can't block if you're in the back row, and can't attack in front of the 3-meter line.

Anybody know why Ali has not played? I know she did not play Friday, I missed Saturday's game.
