Purdue WVB sweeps 4-0 Utah on the Utes’ home court

[DocRon]

The Boilers trailed much of the first set and found themselves on the edge of defeat 20-24. But they fought off 4 straight set points and finally won the set 29-27. That seemed to take some of the fight out of the Utes and Purdue won the second and third sets 25-20 and 25-13 respectively.

Hudson was magnificent and Chicoine seemed no worse for wear despite her tweaked knee in yesterday’s game. I could not get the stats to come up but by my count they only had 5 service errors compared to 10 last night against Cal (in 4 sets.)

The athletic department’s links have sucked so far this year as the broadcast stream was off/on all night and the “live stats” link never worked. ESPN+ had two Utah women announcers working and I thought they were very fair and very good.

Utah drew a crowd but it was far from what I anticipated and many of the 15,000 seats were empty. Tonight the Boilerss travels to the Utah State campus for tomorrow’s game.
