Box Score 2 The Buena Vista volleyball team posted a 2-1 mark at the Wartburg College Tournament after splitting a pair of matches on Saturday.
The team began with a thrilling come-from-behind 3-2 win in Friday night's opener against UW-Platteville. The Beavers trailed 2-0 in the match and rallied to force a fifth set. The Pioneers led by more than five points in the final set, but the Beavers again stormed back and took the set and the match with a 17-15 decision.
BVU fell in Saturday's opener, 3-1, against the College of St. Benedict but came right back to win a five-set thriller against St. Olaf.
Final stats from the three matches are not currently available.
