10/18/2025 10:59:00 PM | Women's Volleyball
TALLAHASSEE - The Florida State volleyball team (9-8, 3-5) defeated Cal (6-12, 3-5) in five sets (22-25, 25-15, 25-20, 22-25, 16-14) on Saturday night at Haas Pavilion in Berkley, California.
In a closely contested first set, the Noles jumped out to an early 14-10 lead. Cal chipped away as the set went on, tying it up at 21. The Golden Bears would go on a 4-1 run to take the opening set. Kyleene Filimaua led the Noles offensively with seven kills in the set.
FSU scored five quick points in the second set and didn't look back. The Noles would go on a 13-5 run in the set, leading to a 10-point 25-15 victory. Filimaua continued to be a force with her swing, finishing the first two sets with double-digit kills, while Iane Henke picked up right where she left off. Having not played since recording a career-high 21 kills against Georgia Tech, Henke also found herself with double-digit kills heading into the third.
Henke and Filimaua combined for 10 kills in the third set. The Seminoles dominated the Golden Bears on the net, recording three consecutive blocks to take a 20-17 lead. The Noles would go on to win the set 25-20.
Cal took advantage of a slow start in the fourth set, grabbing a 15-9 lead. The Noles pulled within three late in the set, but the Golden Bears would go on to extend the match to a fifth set.
The fifth set consisted of different swings of momentum with Cal holding an early 6-3 lead. FSU fought back to get within one, and back-to-back Filiamaua kills gave the Noles their first lead of the set. The set would later be tied at 13, before Filimaua would close the door with her 25th kill of the evening to win the match for FSU.
Henke finished the match with a career-high 27 kills, which led all players. Filimaua tied a career-high of 25 kills. The pair was responsible for 59.5 total points scored for the Seminoles.
The Noles will be back home Friday, October 24, in Tully Gymnasium against Virginia. First serve is set for 6:30 p.m. on ACCNX.
