LC coach Mark Tippett commented:
"We have been off since last Thursday due to fall break, but we
did not appear to be too rusty in our first match against LCU. We
controlled the ball effectively and served very well. Greenville got
off to a slow start and missed a ton of serves for us, but in sets
one and two they really tested our defense. They forced us to raise
our intensity level to meet the challenge, and I was pleased with
how our players responded. Our passing was crisp, and our front-row
players did an exceptional job of working together to create open
shots for each other. Our setter, Vicky Arriola, was able to find
the open hitter all night long. The wins this evening were a true
team effort."
Lincoln College will hit the road on Friday to play a match at
Kaskaskia College, then travel on to Ina to participate in a
triangular set of matches at Rend Lake College on Saturday.
