Coming off its first conference win, the Westcliff women's volleyball team turned in another solid outing Saturday at the Jordan Lawley Center, but it wouldn't be enough as visiting Park-Gilbert came back from down 2-1 to force a Game 5 and take the final set for a 21-25, 25-18, 19-25, 25-17, 15-11 win.
Maddie Shepston led the way for the Warriors once again, this time finishing with 15 kills and nine digs.
Right behind her on the scoresheet was Elise Brown, who racked up 14 winners from the outside.
Kenidi MacDonald once again did the bulk of the work at the backline, turning in 20 digs.
Michelle Do had 11 digs of her own to complement 24 assists.

Peyton Holst had five kills and two block-stuffs from the middle, while Cydnee Reimann (four kills) and Alexia Scott (seven kills) provided a number of highlight reel moments.
Janine Coria came off the bench to provide some solid service from the backline.
Jillian Hewitt saw extended minutes as well.
Up next for the Warriors (3-6, 1-2) is a trip across town to Vanguard, where the Lions await a 7 p.m. first serve Tuesday.
