Lincoln was without two of their main offensive weapons for
this match due to injuries to outside hitter Kenzie Cooper and
right side Mattie Giese. LC (21-12) was able to remain
competitive, but did not have enough firepower to win the match
as they fell in four sets (26-24, 25-19, 12-25, 25-21).

LC Coach Mark Tippett: "We hurt ourselves early in the
match with missed serves. That was what cost us the first set
and got us down in set two. We played much better in sets three
and four, but it was too little too late. Sandburg played hard
all night and deserved the win. Hopefully, we will be back to
full strength tomorrow and will be able to get back to playing
the way we are capable of playing."
LC will play their final home match of the season on Thursday
evening at 6:00 against Illinois Valley CC. Prior to the match,
the team will recognize graduating senior Erin Rankin and
sophomores Melanie Murray, Brighton Robbins and Kenzie Cooper.
