MISENHEIMER, N.C. - The Lees-McRae Lady Bobcats suffered their
first Conference Carolinas loss, 3-2 (22-25, 25-20, 16-25, 25-15,
10-15), to the Pfeiffer University Lady Falcons on the
road Wednesday evening.
After losing game one 22-25, the Lady Bobcats rallied to win
game two 25-20 but fell in game three 16-25. In game four,
Lees-McRae exploded out to a 19-2 lead and controlled the set to
win 25-15. In the deciding game five, the Lady Bobcats fell behind
early, 4-0, but rallied to tie the match at four. The two teams
traded points until the Lady Falcons took a 9-8 lead
and pressed on to win 10-15.
"It was a great battle, and Pfeiffer showed great character by
killing clutch sets in key moments," commented head coach Jamie
Petrik. "I think they showed us that we have some things to work
on, and for us, sometimes a loss is a win."
Megan Epperson (St. John, Ind.) and Whitney Kiser (Connelly
Springs, N.C.) had nine kills each for the Lady Bobcats. Epperson
also had four solo blocks and 16 digs for the Lady Bobcats. Lauren
Dickover (Las Vegas, Nev.) pitched in 20 assists while Kell Bodgan
(Leawood, Kans.) had 19 digs in the five game contest.
Lees-McRae now stands 5-1 in league play and falls to 8-9
overall, while the Pfeiffer sits atop the conference standings at
7-0 (13-3).
The Lady Bobcats look to rebound as they travel to Converse College
Friday, October 3rd. First serve is set for 7 p.m.
