The Owls were swept in both matches, falling 25-18, 25-15, 25-18 against the Threshers and 25-19, 25-19 and 26-24 against the Coyotes Friday at Lynn Farrell Arena.

Keeping it tight in the middle of the first set, William Woods went on top at 9-8 on an Andressa M. Borges kill and 10-9 on a Pamela Durazo kill. Those were the Owls' only leads in set one, as Borges' four kills led the way.

Playing back-to-back contests, WWU showed improvement versus a more formidable Kansas Wesleyan, but it didn't do enough to take a set from the Coyotes.

William Woods recorded 15 kills, four errors and a .324 hitting percentage, while Kansas Wesleyan had 18 kills, three errors and a .405 hitting percentage for set one.

The Coyotes controlled most of the second set, as the Owls only went in front once at 5-4 thanks to a Kansas Wesleyan attack error, its fourth straight miscue, which accounted for all four points in WWU's match-high 4-0 run. Campos Mello remained WWU's offensive leader, with four kills - three on a 3-0 personal run - one block and an ace.

During set two, the Owls registered 10 kills, seven errors and a .081 hitting percentage, and the Coyotes posted 17 kills, six errors and a .256 hitting percentage.

Although the 26-24 third-set result was the closest, Woods never took the lead but did comeback to tie it at 24 when it scored four points unanswered. In that stretch, Lauren Adams and Luciana Paiva Pereira put down a kill, Treis served an ace and Kansas Wesleyan committed an attack error.

While WWU recorded a set-high 16 kills in set three, it also made a set-high eight errors while hitting .178. The Coyotes had 18 kills, three errors and a .326 hitting percentage.

The Owls conclude play in the Hastings College Classic on Saturday. They take on Central Christian (0-2) at 10 a.m. and host Hastings (3-1) at noon.
