MIAMI SHORES, Fla. -- Barry University's volleyball team gave the fifth-ranked team in the country trouble, but Tampa pulled away in the Buccaneers' final home match of the season Saturday, winning 25-21, 25-21, 25-18.

Barry (12-10, 7-6 Sunshine State Conference) will finish the final two weeks of the regular season on the road, beginning Friday at Embry-Riddle in Daytona Beach.

The Bucs hit .113, while the Spartans (23-5, 11-1) had a .225 attack percentage on a day four Barry seniors played their final match in the Health & Sports Center.

Cielena banged down a kill in the first set to bring Barry within 10-8, but Tampa's Elise Boutet served up an ace to bump the Spartans lead to 14-9. Ivana Didanovic's kill kept the Bucs within four, 21-17, but Berkley Whaley had two straight kills to push Tampa to a six-point lead, and Barry couldn't overcome the deficit.

Barry took a 14-10 lead in the second set on one of Didanovic's eight kills, but the Spartans went on a 6-1 run to take a 17-16 lead on one of Whaley's 10 kills. The Bucs couldn't get over the hump, despite Dooley and Jenny Trinidad's block on Whaley that pulled Barry within 22-21. Tampa's three straight kills down the stretch gave the Spartans a 2-0 lead.

Serna's kill in the third set lifted the Bucs to a 12-7 lead. Tampa went on a 7-1 run to take a 14-13 lead before Dooley slammed down a kill, and Cielena added another to put the Bucs in front, 15-14. But Marissa Lisenbee's kill completed another Spartans surge -- this time a 7-0 run -- to give Tampa a 21-15 lead Barry couldn't overcome.
