LEBANON, Tenn. – At Dallas Floyd Arena, the homestanding Phoenix overcame an early one-set deficit, rallying off a 3-1 decision to effectively end the Lindsey Wilson volleyball team’s road conference-opening win streak after six matches.

After storming back to win the following set, the Phoenix, again, used a late run to create some space in the deciding fourth, eventually winning 25-20 to seal the deal.
