Recently In Adams State Volleyball:
It has been a tough stretch for the Grizzlies as they have not won a set since September 16^th's win over Black Hills State 3-2 in Alamosa. Metro State and UCCS defeated Adams last weekend 3-0 each to drop ASU to 6-7, 2-2 RMAC. The silver lining in this slump has been Gabrielle Timmen who moved into third place in career digs for Adams State last Saturday after adding 21 assists to her new total of 1,154. Timmen is also second in the RMAC this season in digs with 215.
