COLUMBIA, Ky. – At the Biggers Sports Center, the Lindsey Wilson volleyball team survived its first five-set test of the 2022 season, defeating Freed-Hardeman University in dramatic fashion to improve to 2-1 in conference play.

After the visitors snuck out an opening set victory, the Blue Raiders responded with back-to-back set wins before the Lions forced a deciding-fifth frame. In that tiebreaker, the home side dropped nine kills behind a 0.300 attack percentage to pull away and clinch the match.

Four different locals finished in double-figures in kills, including junior Alix Stoermer with a season-best 17. Elsewhere for Lindsey Wilson, senior Camryn Rich tallied season-highs in assists and digs, closing with 50 and 21, respectively to record her seventh double-double of this campaign, and Aleksandra Wyrzkowska came just one successful attack shy of her first career double-double, concluding the night with 12 digs and nine kills.

The Blue Raiders posted the evening’s first three points in the first set, but Freed-Hardeman never let the deficit grow any larger as they pushed back with a 15-12 advantage to knot the score. After the two sides proceeded to trade jabs at one another, the Lions ultimately gained some breathing room to take the frame, 25-22.

In the following set, the visitors fell into trouble with a series of early errors, and with kills from Elizabeth Moore and Stoermer, the locals found themselves on a 7-1 run to move ahead 8-4. Then, despite allowing the Lions to level the set at 9-9, the Raiders switched on the afterburners to score 12 of the next 16 points and run away with the second set, 25-16.

The two sides played a fairly even third set, with only a seven-point swing by Freed-Hardeman separating them from back-and-forth action….
