LOS ANGELES – The University of California women’s volleyball team lost to No. 3 ranked USC, 3-0 (30-25, 30-26, 30-19), Saturday night at the Lyon Center on USC’s campus.  

The Bears were led by freshman Mia Jerkov’s 13 kills, while junior Reena Pardiwala also had a strong night, recording nine kills, a team-high .615 hitting percentage (nine kills, one error, 13 attempts) and a team-high 11 digs.  

USC (12-1 overall, 7-0 Pac-10) was led by sophomore April Ross, last season’s Pac-10 Freshman of the Year, who had 13 kills. The Trojans are alone in first place in the Pac-10.  

“The way our team sustained our level of play and effort, I felt we won some battles tonight,” said head coach Rich Feller. “Overall, I think we had a good effort this weekend playing against two of the top teams in the nation in UCLA and USC.”
