Chisholm returned to form early in the match after an off-night against Kansas on Saturday as Chisholm pounded out seven kills in just the first set to help lead K-State to a 25-19 win over the Buffaloes out of the gate.
Chisholm hit .462 in the opening set and the rest of the team combined to hit .300 with setter Soriana Pacheco tallying 13 assists in the first set - also a strong performance for an individual set. K-State took advantage of that momentum from Chisholm to open a 17-11 lead in the first set going on a 5-0 run.
In the second set, the Wildcats were plagued by service errors allowing the Buffaloes to hang around. Then, Colorado found a rhythm on offense to go on a 7-2 run and open up a 17-12 lead. K-State rallied to pull within four points after a four-point run of its own, but could not overcome the lead of Colorado falling 25-19.
The Wildcats continued to pour on the attack with their middle blockers in the fourth set. Muff and Chipman kept the pressure on Colorado as Muff added a block and three block assists while Chipman pounded out five kills and two block assists in the set to close the door 25-17.
K-State will be back in action at home against No. 23 Baylor on Saturday with first serve set for 7 p.m. Saturday's match will be part of a Wildcat Weekend with K-State football taking on Colorado at 11:30 a.m.
