BAY MINETTE, Ala. — The match went the distance, but the Pearl River Volleyball team couldn't complete the comeback Friday night, falling to Coastal Alabama – South 3-2 (14-25, 16-25, 26-24, 25-18, 14-16)

"We had a tough time finding our rhythm against a good Coastal Alabama – South team, but once we found it, we did what we came to do — compete," head coach Haley Chatham said. "Tomorrow, we aim to do the same but with a much quicker start."

Pearl River (18-12 overall) struggled to find its footing in the first set of the day as Coastal Alabama – South ran away with a 25-14 win.

Despite falling 25-16 in the second set, it appeared it had started to click for the Wildcats near the end.

Pearl River fended off a loss in the third set of the night, battling to win 26-24.

The Wildcats dug deep to battle back and even the match in the fourth set, winning it 25-18.

PRCC couldn't hold on to the momentum it had created in the final set of the night as the Sun Chiefs captured a 16-14 victory.
