KNIGHT NOTES

In her second career match, freshman Anastasiia Maksimova received the most targets with 17 and bounced a team-high seven kills as a result.
Junior middle blocker Stasa Miljevic made her first start of the year and produced six kills with five blocks, while fellow junior middle Jasmine Stackhouse had five and six, respectively.
Freshman right side Anastasiya Kudryashova made her collegiate debut and threw down her first career block.
Cal won this first-ever meeting between the two sides.

THE MOMENTS

Set 1 | Stackhouse started RU off with two blocks and a kill for a 5-1 early lead, but a mid-set run of 5-0 and a 4-0 spurt to end the period gave Cal the 1-0 lead.
Set 2 | Down 11-7, Rutgers got back in it with a 10-2 run fueled by junior middle blocker Stasa Miljevic's two blocks and a kill for the 17-13 lead. Cal immediately responded, however, with a 4-0 stint of its own to knot the set at 17-17 before ending the stanza on a 12-3 overall run.
