CARROLLTON, Ga. – The University of West Alabama volleyball team (16-8, 4-3 GSC) leaves the West Georgia Crossover with a 2-1 record after splitting a pair of contests on Saturday.

UWA took down Barry College by a score of 3-0 late Saturday afternoon, after falling 3-0 to Rollins earlier in the day.
 
In the day's first match, the Tigers were overpowered by a strong Rollins team. The Tars won three-straight sets, with the largest margin of defeat coming in the eight-point difference of the 25-17 second game.
 
Playing in two matches on the day, the Tigers had a chance to rebound, and that is exactly what they did, rolling past Barry in the afternoon session. In that contest, UWA had a team hitting percentage of .319 compared to Barry's .058 percentage. The Tigers were led by Sadie Beam's 13 kills, while Olivia Drew and Tazra Pitts each added 10 kills.  Meanwhile, senior Alexis McHale continues her record season with a match-high 37 assists in just three games.
 
The Red and White now return home as the squad entertains Gulf-South Conference foe Alabama-Huntsville at 7 p.m. on Tuesday at Pruitt Hall.
