Finishing its three days in Florida, the Ashland University volleyball team split its two matches at the Flagler Invitational on Saturday (Sept. 13) – losing 3-0 (25-11, 25-12, 29-27) to Embry-Riddle, then topping Lenoir-Rhyne by the same count (25-20, 25-22, 26-24).
The Eagles are 5-2 coming back to campus.
