Kat Evans led the CU offense with 10 kills and Jordan Escobar provided seven with match high six block assists.  
 
Angelo's Abbie Lynn was their leading offensive weapon 10 kills with Mallory Blauser adding nine.
 
Cameron edged ASU in blocks with eight to their seven, but the difference was hitting; Angelo State left with an attack percentage at .222 while Cameron had a .079 overall.
 
With the loss for Cameron (3-2, 0-1 LSC) it sends them to their 19 straight league loss, while Angelo State moves to 5-1 and 2-0 in league play.
