UTSA had four players rack up double-digit kills, but it was not enough, as Santa Clara overcame five match points to outlast the Roadrunners in five sets (25-17, 18-25, 23-25, 26-24, 16-14) on Saturday morning at the Time Warner Cable Texas Invitational.

The Roadrunners (6-7) held a 14-10 lead in the deciding frame before the Broncos (4-6) went on a 6-0 run, which included four consecutive blocks, to pull out the win.
