Lady Jaguars down Lady Lions

On September 30, 2016, the Lady Jaguars’ volleyball team traveled to Arkansas to take on the University of Pine Bluff Lady Lions.
Unfortunately, the Lady Jaguars fell short.
In the first set, the Lady Jaguars gave the Lady Lions a run for their money until the Lions had a chance at set point. This resulted in them ending the set 2 short with 9-3 and UAPB with 17-6.
Even though the Jaguars were down, they kept pushing. During set four there were 7 ties between the Jaguars and the Lions. However, UAPB was a much stronger team towards the end.
By set five it looked as if the Lady Jaguars had the game in the bag. They had mounted a 12-9 lead against UAPB. Somehow, the Lady Lions pushed through and made a comeback, thus winning the game.
Although the Jaguars didn’t come home with the victory, they played a good game. Three of the Lady Jaguars hit double-digit kills, with Freshman middle blocker Arabella Hall netting 16.
Inspite of the recent lost, the Lady Jags are getting back to work, preparing for their upcoming games in the next few weeks. Be on the lookout to see what our Lady Jaguars will do next! They go on to face Jackson State on Friday, October 7 at 2pm and Saturday, October 8 they face off against Mississippi Valley State at 1pm.
