QUINCY, Mass. – Regis College rallied from a 2-0 deficit to force a deciding fifth set, but Eastern Nazarene College quickly took control of the final set to pick up a 3-2 (25-15, 25-19, 18-25, 24-26, 15-5) victory Thursday night in a non-conference women's collegiate volleyball match at the Lahue Athletic Center.
