The Winthrop University Eagles volleyball team experienced a 3-0 loss to Wofford in straight sets on Saturday at John M. Belk Arena in Davidson, North Carolina. This match saw the Eagles unable to secure a set against their opponent.

Paige Bennett led the Rock Hill team with 13 kills during the match.

Although Bennett, assisted by Roberts and Sychterz, briefly gave Winthrop a 2-1 lead with consecutive kills, Wofford responded with a 6-0 run. Bennett and Rhoads narrowed the gap to 23-21, but Wofford ultimately secured the set 25-22.

The Eagles started the second set with a kill from Sychterz, assisted by Roberts, and Bennett’s service ace extended their lead to 14-10. However, Wofford capitalized on errors to win the set 25-20. The third set saw Wofford take an early 7-2 lead, aided by Winthrop’s attack errors. Despite kills from Glover and Czajka, Wofford maintained control, closing the set 25-14.
