COLUMBIA, Ky. – At the Biggers Sports Center, senior Camryn Rich recorded a rare triple-double to help guide the Lindsey Wilson volleyball team back from a 2-1 deficit to knock off the University of the Cumberlands in exciting fashion.
The local’s setter finished with a career-best 11 kills to go along with 57 assists and 19 digs. All told, she was one of five Blue Raiders to post 10 or more kills, as the team nearly matched an all-time program record with 78 total successful attacks.
“I’ve coached college for eleven years and I have only had one other setter who has pulled that off,” explained head coach Jerry Forbes postgame. “But it takes everybody on the floor for someone like Camryn to achieve that, so I think it’s a testament to how much the team fought together to get the win.
Lindsey Wilson certainly did fight on Tuesday night, as did the Patriots who fell behind one set early but went on to rally off back-to-back narrow victories to push the Blue Raiders to the brink.
Once the match opened, the home side wasted little time getting their attack on a roll. After slipping behind 2-0, consecutive kills by Rich, Madison Bidwell, and Elizabeth Moore led Lindsey Wilson to its first lead, 5-2. The barrage did not cease there, as three-straight strikes by Savanah Pippin soon after helped expand the advantage to 8-4. From there, the two rivals traded hits, with the emergence of Alexis Smith facilitating the Raiders’ closing run to take the first set, 25-18.
Sets two and three quickly turned into battles within themselves. In the latter stages of the earlier of the two, Lindsey Wilson led 22-20 before charging back with an 8-4 swing to tie the match. Then, in the middle frame, the hosts raced in front 11-4 thanks to seven kills and a pair of service aces…
