A large crowd in the Spectrum cheered the Ags on against Montana to no avail. USU lost in four games - l-15 , 15-13, 9-15, 11-Jj_ The firs1 game was obvious ly one-sided, with Montana unveiling a huge line-up which included 6-foot-3 hiller Kara Pri ce. Although Utah State took many side outs, they couldn't score. Ag freshman Lisa Sorenson explained, •;·At first thcv were hit1ing 1he ball lightl y. We are used IO harder hilling.''

USU moved 10 a 3-0 lead in the third game on Strclow's serve, then to 5-1. Montana came back with JO poin1s, using strong middle blocking and a well-organized, wcll-cxccu1cd of­ fense. "We've spent a lot of time in praclice on our serve return­ ing and our free ball defense,'' said Moniana Coach Dick Scott. The practice paid off as the Lady Grizzlies got the ball consistanlly to the primary seller, Mary Pederson. "She controls the tempo of our team," Scoll said of Peder­ son, who transfered to the Montana program from a Spokane, Wash. communi1y college . With the ball going 10 1he right spot off the serve, Montana was able to run its planned of­ fense. Utah State was less consistent with its offense. The Selling was sometimes poor, prompting Cottle to say of her setting staff, "That's why we're switching Masako (Maekawa) and Lisa (Pestrello). Our key players don't play well all the Lime."
