IVCC hung with the Lady Lynx most of the way in each set, but
LC's height advantage at the net and consistency behind the
service line proved to be too much for the Lady Eagles.
Twenty-two total blocks on the evening helped Lincoln take the
first set 25-20, the second 25-21. A kill down the line by
freshman right side hitter Colbi Schertz (Princeton) gave
Lincoln a 25-19 win in set three to end the match.
Lincoln's final regular season record is 20-13.
LC Stat Totals:
Katie Jordan 11 kills, 5 points
Kenzie Cooper 9 kills, 5 digs
Colbi Schertz 3 kills, 3 blocks
Cassie Jennings 16 set assists, 5 points
Lauren Wendt 3 kills, 7 blocks
Ashley Robinson 7 points, 14 set assists
Peyton Jones 5 kills, 5 blocks
Gina Moore 4 kills, 2 points
Kayla Dierker 3 digs. 4 points
Aira Hanson 2 kills, 3 blocks
Kassy Dammerman 7 digs, 4 points
LC Coach Mark Tippett: "I am very pleased with where we are at
the end of the regular season. It was evident tonight that all
of our players have improved their skills this year and that we
play well as a team. Our front line was able to control the net
most of the match, and we made smart decisions on offense. That
is a tough combination to beat and one that I hope to continue
to see in the postseason."
Lincoln has the #5 seed in the Region 24 Postseason tournament
which begins next Wednesday evening.
The team will travel to play the #4 seed Lewis & Clark College
in Godfry, IL for a 6:00 p.m. match. The winner will advance to
the Region Final Four to be held at Lincoln Land CC on November
7th.
