ATHENS, Ohio (EMUEagles.com) – The Eastern Michigan University volleyball team saw its four-match winning streak come to an end Saturday, Nov. 1, at the hands of the Mid-American Conference leading Ohio University Bobcats. The Eagles (15-11, 6-6 MAC) were able to take one set from the Bobcats (19-4, 12-0 MAC), but were unable to top OU.
Stacey Perinar (Channahon, Ill.-Minooka Community) led the Eagles' offense with 13 kills, while Kesley Jones (Reed City, Mich.-Reed City) added 10. Jill Briner (Oak Park, Ill.-Oak Park and River Forest (Northeastern)) not only setup the EMU offense with 35 assists, but she added seven kills with a .375 attack percentage. Katie Krasowski (Oak Lawn, Ill.-Marist) posted seven kills, while Megan Crawshaw (Mattawan, Mich.-Mattawan) recorded six.
On the defensive side of the net, Briner picked up 20 digs, along with Corynne Smith (Norwalk, Ohio-St. Paul) notching 20. Perinar added 14 sigs, while Briner and Crawshaw led Eastern at the net with three block assists apiece.
The Eagles dropped the opening set, 20-25, while hitting .250 in the frame. Briner and Perinar each contributed three kills, while Alyssa Davis (Kalamazoo, Mich.-Plainwell) led the Green and White with five digs in the first set. The Bobcats used a strong offensive attack in the first frame, hitting .380, in order to take a 1-0 lead.
In set two, the Eagles used their defense to keep pace with Ohio. Eastern held OU to a .100 attack percentage on its way to a 25-19 set two win. Offensively, Perinar posted four kills, while Briner, Crawshaw, Jones and Krasowski each added a pair. Briner recorded 10 of her 35 assists, while Smith notched six digs in the set.

The Bobcats hit .270 in the frame, while Eastern managed a .158 attack percentage. Briner picked up nine assists, along with six digs. Smith notched six of her digs in the third set.
