TULSA, Okla. - The Oral Roberts University volleyball team was handed their first home loss of the season Sunday as IPFW earned a 3-0 win over the Golden Eagles in Summit League action.

The Golden Eagles could not find their rhythm Sunday as they were swept for the first time since a 3-0 loss on October 17 at Omaha. ORU made a late run against IPFW in the third set giving life inside the Aerobics Center similar to their comeback Friday night.

However, the Mastodons were near perfect playing one of their best matches of the season posting hitting percentages near the .400 mark in each of the final two sets.

Laura Milos led ORU with 15 kills while her counterpart, Emily Spencer of IPFW finished with a match-high 24 kills.

The Turning Point
A service error in the third set gave IPFW a 22-21 lead in a back and forth final set. With late comebacks in each of the last two matches for ORU a comeback seemed imminent; however three uncharacteristic errors from the Golden Eagles gave the Mastodons the final points needed to finish the sweep.
