Gold Nuggets lose, then win in Rumpke Invitational

GEORGETOWN, Ky. — Xavier University of Louisiana lost to Trinity Christian, then defeated Asbury in a pair of four-set women's volleyball matches Friday at the Rumpke Invitational.

Trinity Christian, winning for the seventh time in a row, defeated the Gold Nuggets 25-17, 25-17, 25-27, 25-16. But Xavier snapped its three-match losing streak by defeating Asbury for the second time this season. No scores were available on the XU victory.

Xavier will play Saturday at 1:30 p.m. EDT against Lourdes and at 5:30 against NAIA No. 7 Georgetown (Ky.) in a rematch of last year's NAIA National Championship opening round, which Georgetown won in four sets. Here's a link to live stats for the Xavier-Lourdes  match.
