Eagles fall to Lewis in four games

EDWARDSVILLE, Ill.—The University of Southern Indiana volleyball team saw its season come to an end Thursday as the Screaming Eagles fell to Lewis University 30-20, 28-30, 30-17, 30-23 in the first round of the GLVC Tournament.

USI (17-11) struggled in its attack the entire match as the second-seeded Flyers held the sixth-seeded Eagles to an attacking clip of .087. The Flyers set the tone for the match in game one as they attacked at a clip of .298 in the opening frame.

The Eagles held off a Lewis surge in game two to knot the match at 1-1, but the Flyers (23-5) attacked at clips of .265 and .314 in games three and four, respectively, to turn the momentum back into their favor.

Senior outside hitter Chelse Doubler (Griffin, Indiana) led the Eagles with 15 kills, while senior libero Amanda Probst (Wheeler, Illinois) finished with a team-high 21 digs. Junior setter Stephanie Wilson (Terre Haute, Indiana) and freshman outside hitter Courtney Bealor (LaPorte, Indiana) each chipped in 11 digs, while junior defensive specialist Cara Keever (Ft. Wayne, Indiana) added 10 digs.

Lewis (23-5) was led by Sarah McKinney's 20 kills and Andrea Morrone's 56 assists and 26 digs. The Flyers play the winner of the match between the second seed, Rockhurst University, and the seventh seed, the University of Missouri-St. Louis, Friday evening.
