LC coach Mark Tippett commented:
"We were a step slow on defense and very inconsistent from behind
the serving line in the first match against Wabaunsee. Despite the
fact we were not very sharp early in the game, we managed to make
things interesting in sets two and three.
"After a long layoff we came out and played well against Harper,
but not well enough to push the match to a fifth set.
"We had to work hard to beat IVCC, but the win stopped the day
from becoming a total loss. Our blocking was much better and we
found our rhythm on offense, which was missing during the first half
of the day."
