Game Summary

The Lakehead Women’s Volleyball was defeated 3-0 (25-21, 25-19, 25-23) today by the Nipissing University Lakers.

Coach Green switched up his starters in hopes to get a new momentum going from the get-go and see what different players can bring in certain positions.

“It was a great chance to play a different group and with some in different spots, we saw a lot of notable qualities”, said Coach Green.

With her first start as a libero, freshman Ciara Zarn was able to show case the type of player she can be with 10 digs and 2 assists. Jennifer Hammerton again showed the strong player she can be and had another great game with 8 digs and 27 assists.

The 4^th year seniors of the team showed strong and consistent play and made a difference when they were on the court. Sara Potter had 9 kills, 1 block and 5 digs while Kailian Robinson lead the team with 12 kills, 4 digs, 2 aces and 1 block. Olivia Bowman was also a force with 10 kills, 3 aces and 3 digs.

“Of course we want to win, but right now we want the athletes to learn what it takes to work as a team and commit to each other in an unwavering fashion”, commented Coach Green. ” We need to learn from point to point, and finally find ways to contribute to winning ALL points”.

Tomorrow the women will get another chance to compete and play their 3^rd game of the weekend against York or RMC at 9:30am.
