LCU volleyball vs. Greenville College

[September 12, 2013]  GREENVILLE -- The Lincoln Christian University volleyball team went on their first true road test of the season Tuesday night as they traveled to Greenville College. It was not LCU's night, however, as Greenville won in three straight sets.

The set scores began ugly but got better as the match went on. LCU (7-2) lost three sets with scores of 10-25, 19-25 and 23-25. In the first set, LCU failed to work off their road game jitters as they made various errors and misreads throughout the set. After the first set, LCU showed more fight, but it was a little too late, as GC's crowd was into the game and providing a distraction for the visiting Red Lions.

Junior outside hitter Alicia Carson (Nobles, Mich./Bloomingdale High) led the way for LCU as she recorded 10 kills on the night, along with three digs. Senior setter Hannah Taylor (Mishawaka, Ind./Jimtown High) provided 31 assists on the night, while junior libero Emma Donnelly (Clinton/Clinton High) added 21 digs.

LCU will return to action Thursday as they host Springfield's Benedictine University at 7 p.m. at the LCU Laughlin Center.
