LC Coach Mark Tippett:

"This was a very exciting match to watch. Both teams are athletic and play hard on defense, which is a recipe for long volleys and intensity on the court. I can't fault our effort or say we beat ourselves tonight. They had a couple of very tough servers and were able to outlast us on a few key points that turned the match in their favor. Despite the loss, I thought our team performed well and had fun on the court, which is great to see at this point of the season."

On Saturday, LC will participate in a triangular set of matches at Joliet Junior College.
