By Cort Reynolds

The Lady Bulldogs fell to 2-15 with the 25-16, 22-25, 25-15, 25-22 non-conference defeat. 

USV improved to 4-12 with the hard-fought victory. 

"Our back row play was not as good as it is normally," said Ada head coach Kyleigh Woodruff. "They had a lot of tips that fell in. We were reaching for the ball instead of getting our body behind the ball. We were a step slow.

"Our serve receive also wasn't as solid as usual either," she added.
