UC Davis’ struggles on the road continued this weekend as the Aggies fell to Cal State Northridge and UC Riverside — both matches finished 3-0.
The defeats extended UC Davis’ road losing streak to seven matches. Over that stretch the Aggies have won just three sets.
UC Davis fell to 20-8 on the season, 6-7 in Big West play. The Aggies are currently fifth-place in the conference.
Sophomore Devon Damelio led the Aggies with nine kills against CSU Northridge, while senior Betsy Sedlak added eight. Demelio also added nine digs while juniors Allison Whitson and Caroline Mercado tallied seven digs apiece.
Whitson paced the Aggies with 16 kills against UC Riverside. Mercado posted nine digs while Whitson and fellow junior Kaitlyn Plum notched six each.
UC Riverside tallied nine aces in the match.
UC Davis will now return home for its final three games of the year as it tries to make a push for an at-large bid in the NCAA Tournament.
The Aggies will next take the court Friday against Cal State Fullerton in the Pavilion.
