The Gee-Gees took on the Citadins at Montpetit Hall on Saturday night. While Ottawa was first to win a set, ultimately it was UQAM who came away with the 3-1 victory.
Down 6-1 in the opening set, the Gee-Gees called a timeout early. This timeout proved effective as the Gee-Gees were able to turn things around and win the first set 25-21.
The Citadins set the tone for the rest of the game, taking the next two sets 25-18.
The fourth and final set went in favour of UQAM once again. The Gee-Gees were first on the scoreboard but once the Citadins started scoring the Gee-Gees were unable to keep up. UQAM took the set 25-16,
Although the match was lost, the Gee-Gees still had great contributions throughout the night including two service aces a piece at the hands of Alana Leung and Audrey Odigie.
Odigie led the way with 10 kills, followed by Grace McKale and Nicole Hildebrand with six each.
Next for the Gee-Gees is another weekend on the road. The team starts with a Friday night match against Laval, and a Saturday afternoon meeting with UQTR.
