UMass Boston women's volleyball on the road to kick off the Lillies conference tournament. The quarterfinals between them as the six seed and the three seeded UMass Dartmouth. Corsairs, the Corsairs beating the Beacons at Clark Athletic Center earlier this year in three straight sets. But there are three close sets and the Beacons showed why in this one. As early on they would have the momentum and take an early three nothing lead in set number one. Thanks to McCayla Clary Kill and two attackers by the Corsairs. However, UMass Dartmouth would go on a seven o' run when the match was tied up at 14 all, which ended up being the difference maker as they win set number one 25 16. But the Beacons coming back strong in set number two a three o' run here to kick it off in a five five tie. Thanks to that pretty kill by Amelia Devlin. And then a kill here by Terran Brogol and then an attack error after that by Marley Alexander would help give the Beacons an eight to five advantage. And then once it looked like the Corsairs were going to creep back into this match, the Beacons yet again sees control with the three o' run. 16 15 Beacons at this point and McCayla Garity goes in for the kill and makes it 17 15. Then an attack error by Marley Alexander thanks to this block in front by Terran Brogol helps make it 18 to 15 and Garity again makes it 19 to 15 on that pretty kill right there that gets behind the defense of UMass Dartmouth. It ended up taking set number two 25 to 21 thanks to an attack error by Devlin Lang. So you had to the third set tied up at one on the Beacons using a momentous six o' run to end up winning that set. The Beacons had gone on a four o' run when the match was 13 to 12. However, this would be what sealed the deal for them. Up 19 14 end up winning the final six points of the third set and would finish it off with three straight kills by McCayla Garity to take that third set and go up two to one in the match. The Beacons now just within one set of pulling off an upset when as the six seed and showing why they're the defending little East Conference champs as you see right here Garity with a nice kill makes it 24 to 14 and then we finish it off with the set point right there. Brogol looks to finish it but a nice save by the core sares. However, Dean's going to set it up for Devlin and then Garity goes up and finishes the job as a double touch was called on the core sares set number four really just went entirely the way of UMass Dartmouth. They take it 25 18 so with their backs against the wall the Beacons needing a way to win and they were three and oh coming into this match in five set games and Tony Gara a big game changing plan right there the Beacons were up five to one in the set were then up seven to five and Gara's save right there keeps the point alive and helps spur this five oh run by the Beacons that really ends up being the difference maker in the matches you see an attack error two straight times by the core sares end up putting up the Beacons nine to five Malena Sullivan celebrating on the sideline right there Devlin laying then with an attack error makes it 10 to five and just like that the Beacons are closing in on the upset win and then yet another attack error by Devlin laying would help put the Beacons in front 11 5 and then Olivia Trindade puts an exclamation point on that five oh run for the Beacons who are now suddenly up 12 to five in the fifth set and all they need is one more point to win here up 14 to 17 and Terren Brogel and Lauren Westland up front convert on a block against Chelsea Sanker and the Beacons pull off the upset win they celebrate and are bouncing on the court of UMass Dartmouth the Beacons will now head on the road on Thursday night at 7 p.m. to take on the two seedy Keynes that out to they lost to early this year on the road in four sets but one things for sure this Beacons team is something special as they continue their Cinderella run in the little East Conference tournament.
