COLUMBUS, Ohio. – The Juniata men's volleyball team fell 3-0 (25-12, 25-22, 25-19) on the road at No. 6 Ohio State Friday in its second matchup against an NCAA Division I opponent this season. No. 3 Juniata dropped to 11-4 with the loss, while Ohio State improved to 11-2.
Senior Rob Strauss (Penn Hills, Pa./Penn Hills) finished with his fifth straight 20+ assist night. But Juniata's offense struggled to get going early and the Buckeyes took advantage by racking up 7.5 team blocks and countering with a .434 team hitting percentage.
The Eagles will have a chance to rebound as they continue their road trip on Saturday, Feb. 23 in a tri-match with No. 13 Medaille College and D'Youville College.
