LC coach Mark Tippett commented:
"Friday was a very difficult day for our team. To begin with, we
were without our starting setter, Vicky Arriola, who was sick, and
then we lost both of our starting middle hitters to injury. In the
first match, sophomore Beth Daniels rolled her ankle during a block
attempt; then, late in the third set against Clinton, freshman
LaTasha Fizer landed awkwardly after a spike attempt, and the impact
caused a hairline fracture in her lower left leg. I have never seen
such a run of bad luck in all my coaching career.

"I was very proud of how our players rallied around each
other to support their injured teammates and continue to play at
a high level. We are hopeful that Daniels will be back soon, but
we learned that Fizer will be out at least a month, which means
we will need to shuffle our lineup once again. I am confident
that we will find ways to remain competitive and that our team
will continue to improve."
Note: Due to an unresolved scheduling mistake and their injury
status, LC did not participate in matches on Saturday.
This week the Lincoln College team will travel to Carl Sandburg
College for a match on Tuesday evening and host the Millikin JV at 6
p.m. Thursday.
