In set two, the Lady Lynx dominated the net and cruised to a
25-16 win. Lincoln kept things rolling in set three taking a
17-12 advantage, but again had to fight to the finish as L-B
made a late run to tie the set at 24-24. The two teams traded
sideouts up to 26-26, but a Lindenwood serving error and a block
by freshmen Peyton Jones and Colbi Schertz sealed the win for
the Lady Lynx 26-24. Lincoln improved their record to 12-9 on
the year.

LC Coach Mark Tippett:
Our ability to block and control the net was a large part of why
we won this match. The scores in sets one and three were close
mainly because of mental errors on our side of the net. We had
too many missed serves and defensive lapses which stopped us
from putting them away when we should have. Lindenwood showed a
lot of heart coming back the way they did in those sets, but our
team kept it together when we had to to get the win. It's clear
that when we don't do things to beat ourselves, we can be a very
tough team to deal with."
