NORMAN, Okla. - In its third contest of the week, the University of Oklahoma volleyball team (2-20, 1-11 Big 12) dropped a match to No. 24 Colorado (13-7, 8-4 Big 12) today at the Howard McCasland Field House.
Offensively, the Sooners were led by sophomore Christina Barlow and freshman Candice Woods. Barlow recorded a team-high 11 kills while hitting .261, and Woods posted a team-best .357 hitting clip (6K, 1E, 14TA). The Buffaloes held the Sooners to a .122 team hitting percentage while hitting .291.
