SALT LAKE CITY - The Utah volleyball team came out firing on all cylinders and took the first set from No. 12-ranked UCLA, but the Bruins countered with wins in the second, third and fourth set to down the Utes 3-1 (17-25, 25-12, 25-15, 25-16) Friday evening at the Huntsman Center.
Utah falls to 7-9 overall and 1-4 in Pac-12 play, while the Bruins pushed its record to 12-3 overall and 3-2 in league play.
Utah went on runs of 5-1 and 5-2 to take a 19-14 lead midway through the first set and later closed out the frame winning the final five points to take the set 25-17. The Bruins came back with a 10-0 run in the second set and Utah was limited to just a -.034 hitting percentage as UCLA tied the match 1-1 after winning the second set by a margin of 25-12.
UCLA opened the third set, winning eight of the first 11 points and later went on a 7-1 run to go up 20-11. The Utes would win four of the next six points, but UCLA countered winning the final three points on the way to taking the set 25-15 and a 2-1 lead in the match.
The Utes traded points with the Bruins and later took an 11-10 lead midway through the fourth set, but a 10-2 run from the visiting squad was too much and the Bruins went on to take the frame 25-16 and down the Utes in four sets.
Utah limited UCLA to -.053 hitting in the first set, but the Bruins came back with hitting efforts of .423, .400 and .367 on the way to a .258 clip in the match. Utah hit just .096 and was limited to just 36 assists, while the Bruins notched 52 assists on the evening.
Sophomore Adora Anae led the Utes with 17 kills and redshirt freshman Jessie Jorgensen added a team-high 20 assists. Junior Tess Sutton led the team with 19 digs, coming up just one dig shy from her third consecutive 20-plus dig effort.
UCLA's Jordan Anderson led the match with 18 kills and three different Bruin defenders had four blocks each on the night.
Utah returns to action this Sunday, Oct. 11, against top-ranked USC. First serve between the Utes and Trojans is set for 1 p.m. at the Huntsman Center.
