FULLERTON, CA--- The California Baptist University women's volleyball team picked up its second conference road win of the season as they bested the Cal State Fullerton Titans in four sets on Friday night at Titan Gym.
The Lancers improve to 7-19 on the season and 4-11 in conference action, while the Titans fall to 2-13 in Big West play and 7-21 overall.
The Lancers started out strong against the Titans as they overcame an 18-14 deficit in the first set for the 25-23 win cemented by a Nalanie Neal kill. The second set was equally tight, as the Titans came out and took a slight 8-5 lead. CBU fought its way back in and would gain a small lead, but the Titans would follow up with a 4-0 run to take a 21-17 lead. CBU would counter and rattle off four straight points of their own to tie the match and cause the Titans to burn a timeout. Out of the huddle, CBU would score four of the final six points to take the commanding 2-0 lead with another 25-23 set result.
CBU had a golden opportunity to end the match in three as they would race out to a commanding 19-13 advantage led by efficient hitting and solid blocking. CSUF proceeded to go on an 8-0 run to not only tie the game but lead by two at 21-19. CBU would finally end the drought on an Anaiya Campbell kill, but that would be one of just two points over the final stretch for CBU as CSUF came back to force a fourth set, 25-21.
In the fourth set, CBU cruised out to an early lead, but this time would be able to hold on as they closed out the set 25-15 and the match in four sets. The win was the first non-five-set win for the Lancers in conference play and their third true road win of the year.
Nalanie Neal led the charge with 14 kills while Eleftheria Baxa and Audrey Heiring each posted 11 kills. Avery Barber was excellent at the setter spot with 38 assists, tied for the third-best output of her career.
"One of our better setting and blocking performances of the season. Avery did a great job distributing the ball tonight," remarked Head Coach Trevor Johnson after the victory.
 NEXT: The Lancers will conclude their final road trip tomorrow as they head to Long Beach to take on the Beach at 6 PM.
