LC Coach Mark Tippett: "We played a very good team today and gave them a real run for their money. Set one was back and forth and could have gone either way. In set two, we spotted them to an early 8 point lead, but battled our way back to tie it up at 22. It's too bad we fell short of completing the comeback, but to overcome such a deficit showed a lot of heart from our players. Set three was another close one, but Sauk was very tough on defense. The ability of their back court defenders to keep the ball off the floor was probably the difference in the match. Despite the loss in their final home match, our sophomore have had great careers here. They have represented themselves and the program extremely well, and I am proud to have coached each of them."
