HIGHLIGHTS
On senior day Sunday, in which five Boston College seniors were honored in a pre-game ceremony for their dedication to the Boston College volleyball program, the Eagles jumped out to an early 2-0 lead in the match, but couldn't hold off the vigorous North Carolina Tar Heels as the Maroon and Gold fell in five sets. Sophomore Sol Calvete recorded a game-high 19 kills and picked up her team-leading 10th double-double (19 kills, 12 digs) of the season while senior outside hitter Katty Workman registered 14 kills and 15 digs for a double-double of her own in the losing effort. North Carolina, who were tied for second in the conference entering the afternoon and ranked 26th in the AVCA poll, improved to 12-2 in Atlantic Coast Conference play while Boston College fell to 3-11 in conference.
The five seniors recognized during senior day festivities were Franny Hock, Kam McLain, Sarah Mendes, Mallori Moffat and Katty Workman.
HOW IT HAPPENED:
Set One:
Boston College started the afternoon by scoring eight of the first 12 points following kills from Brittany Pavich, Katty Workman and Anna Skold, with an array of attack errors committed by the UNC offense. The Eagles extended their lead in the opening set to 14-7 after UNC's Taylor Treacy surrendered three straight attack errors. After a quick 3-0 run by the Heels, BC responded with a 5-2 run of their own to close out the frame by a score of 25-19.
Set Two:
In the second set, the Eagles and Tar Heels battled to five tied scores, but BC took the lead at the 7-6 mark, courtesy of a Katty Workman kill, and never trailed again, victorious by a score of 25-23. After the Eagles took the lead, they extended it to as much as seven at 21-14, the result of recorded kills from Calvete, Pavich and Julia Topor. Despite the Tar Heels 8-3 run to cut away at the lead, Sol Calvete finished the set with a kill on an assist from Camille Oemcke to head into the break with Boston College ahead 2-0.
Set Three:
North Carolina took their first set of the afternoon in the third, winning 25-20, after they erased an early 5-1 deficit in the frame. After tying the game at 6-apiece, the two squads battled back-and-forth and saw tied scores at 10-all, 11-all, 12-all and 14-all. However, the Tar Heels broke away at the final tied score as they went on a 4-0 run to fuel the effort in the third set.
Set Four:
North Carolina extended their lead to as much as seven in the fourth set, 17-10, and forced a decisive fifth set after winning the fourth frame 25-19.
Set Five:
In the deciding fifth game, UNC forced BC to call timeout after they jumped out to an early 5-1 lead in the first-to-15 set. The Eagles chipped away at their opponents lead, and pulled within two following a Franny Hock service ace, but were unable to overcome the Heels as BC dropped the clincher 15-9.
UP NEXT:
Boston College will travel to North Carolina for games with Wake Forest and Duke next weekend to kick off a four-game road trip. The Maroon and Gold will return to the Heights to play their final two games of the season on Wednesday, Nov. 25 and Friday, Nov. 27. Both games will begin at 1 p.m.
