Freshman outside hitter Julia Reis finished with a match-best 14 kills, but it proved not to be enough, as the NC State volleyball team remained winless in the Atlantic Coast Conference after suffering a 3-0 defeat to conference foe Maryland Tuesday night at the Comcast Center Gym. The Terrapins took the match by the scores of 30-27, 30-23, 30-17. With the loss, the Wolfpack is now 6-12 overall, 0-5 in conference play, while Maryland improves to 15-4, 4-1 in the ACC.
Reis tacked on nine digs as well for NC State, while senior libero Caroline Frede recorded a match-high 12 digs of her own. Junior middle blocker Maya Mapp was second on the team in kills with seven off a .176 attack percentage, and senior setter Crystal Shannon ended the match with 22 assists.
Leading the Terps was outside hitter Lynnsy Jones, who ended the night with 11 kills off a .320 attack percentage. Teammate Stephanie Smith tacked on another nine kills to help spark Maryland's offense. Meanwhile, setter Aimee Huddleston dished out 38 assists to go with five digs and four block assists on the match.
The Wolfpack heads back home to prepare for its match with Virginia on Saturday in Charlottesville. That match is set to begin at 5 p.m.
