NEC had 15 more kills and five more blocks than PFU, and NEC had six fewer hitting errors in the match. Turkey\u2019s Neriman Ozsoy scored 19 points for the Red Rockets, including a block.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"\u3010V\u30ea\u30fc\u30b0\u516c\u5f0f\u30112020\/11\/7\u30cf\u30a4\u30e9\u30a4\u30c8 #NEC\u30ec\u30c3\u30c9\u30ed\u30b1\u30c3\u30c4 vs #PFU\u30d6\u30eb\u30fc\u30ad\u30e3\u30c3\u30c4\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/wKELKkxhuvM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Coming back to Sunday, NEC and Saitama split the first two sets. In the third set, NEC jumped out to a 13-5 lead, but Saitama kept plugging away point-by-point to nearly tie at 22-23. Kills by Haruyo Shimamura and Sarina Koga ended the Medics&#8217; rally 25-22, 2-1 sets lead for NEC. In the fourth set, the Medics started quickly with five straight points to open the set. However, NEC would go on an 8-3 run to tie the set at 8. The set would remain close and would again be tied at 20-20. Two kills by Ozsoy and a Medics hitting error gave NEC a gap at 23-20, and a Shimamura spike ended the set 25-22, 3-1 sets win for NEC.<\/p>\n<p>Shimamura as a middle blocker was nearly unstoppable with 17 points, 16 of 29 spiking with one block to lead all scorers. Ozsoy contributed 16 points with two blocks and an ace in the Red Rockets win. Yuri Yoshino and Mami Uchiseto each had 15 points (all kills) for Ageo in the loss. The win took NEC to 6-1 in wins-losses for the season with 18 points resulting in first place.<\/p>\n<p>The Toray Arrows entered Sunday\u2019s match as the only undefeated team in the league after the Saturday win over Hisamitsu Springs 3-1 on Saturday.\u00a0Azerbaijan\u2019s Jana Kulan was the star for Toray with 27 points, including three blocks.<\/p>\n<p>On Sunday, the Arrows took on Hitachi Rivale who had lost three matches in a row. Toray took the opening set, before Hitachi took the next two for a 2-1 set lead. In the fourth set, Toray jumped to a four-point lead and kept extending it to force a fifth set.\u00a0With the score tied 4-4 in the fifth set, three straight kills by Mayu Ishikawa for Toray gave them a 4-0 run to make the side change with a lead of 8-4 Toray. From there the Arrows coasted to a 15-9 set win and match win 3-2.<\/p>\n<p>Kulan again was the star on Sunday with 26 and another three blocks for the Arrows. Miwako Osanai had 21 with an ace in the loss for the Rivale. Toray\u2019s five-set win though cost them the league lead, however.\u00a0 For teams tied on wins, points is the next tiebreaker. With NEC having played one more match, the Red Rockets have 18 points to NEC\u2019s 17 points.<\/p>\n<p>JT Marvelous took both of their matches this weekend 3-2 against Denso Airybees on Saturday and 3-1 against Victorina Himeji. Annie Drews with 22 (three blocks included) against Denso and 26 (one block included) led the Marvelous. The match against Himeji featured 13 blocks for JT against two for Himeji &#8211;\u00a0Aika Akutagawa with four blocks alone.\u00a0With the wins, the Marvelous are keeping pace with NEC and Toray at 6-1 and 17 points, in third place due to sets ratio with Toray.<\/p>\n<p>American Kathryn Plummer and her Denso Airybees defeated Okayama Seagulls 3-1 after losing on Saturday. Plummer is the focus of the Airybees&#8217; offence and defence with a combined 54 points, with four blocks and five aces included to keep Denso in the race for the top four. Okayama split their weekend matches with a win over Himeji 3-0 on Saturday. Shuka Kaneda hit 15 kills in the win for the Seagulls on Saturday.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"\u3010V\u30ea\u30fc\u30b0\u516c\u5f0f\u30112020\/11\/8\u30cf\u30a4\u30e9\u30a4\u30c8 #\u5ca1\u5c71\u30b7\u30fc\u30ac\u30eb\u30ba vs #\u30c7\u30f3\u30bd\u30fc\u30a8\u30a2\u30ea\u30fc\u30d3\u30fc\u30ba\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/qcpyZijZFR0?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Toyota Auto Body Queenseis got their first win of the season on Sunday against PFU 3-0.

PFU had 30 fewer kills and nine more hitting errors in the loss. PFU are the only team without a win in the league.
