COLUMBIA, Ky. – At Biggers Sports Center, the Lindsey Wilson volleyball team did not have to worry much about shaking off the rust of a nine-day hiatus. No, the Blue Raiders got right back to work with their third consecutive victory, defeating Georgetown College in a straight-set sweep, 3-0.

The hosts showed off an unremitting attack against the Tigers, finishing the night with their third-highest single-match hitting percentage of the season at 0.370. On the flip side, the home team took advantage of 17 unforced errors and added seven total blocks to fluster their opposition at the net.

Alexis Smith paced a balanced Lindsey Wilson offense with a personal season-best 0.533 attacking, helping her to collect nine kills. Elizabeth Moore followed with seven successful attacks, while Savanah Pippin and Elisa Burzio contributed six kills each.

Both teams came rumbling out the gate in the first set. After Georgetown utilized three-straight kills and a service ace to move ahead 4-1, the Blue Raiders answered immediately with a trio of their own kills from Aleksandra Wyrzkowska and Pippin. From there, the lead teetered from one side to the other, but it was a 10-3 run by Lindsey Wilson midway through the frame that ultimately set them on the winning course to take the opener, 25-22.

In the second set, a series of Georgetown miscues cleared the way for an early 5-2 lead for the Blue Raiders. However, a subsequent 10-5 stretch swiftly pushed the Tigers in front, 12-10. Despite this surge, Lindsey Wilson wasted little time getting back on track behind kills from Smith and Pippin, and with a few more errors from their opposition, the hosts restored their advantage with a 9-2 swing en route to a second set victory, 25-21.

The Blue Raiders dominated the deciding third frame, charging out to a 15-point lead that they carried all the way to the finish line.

Along with the strong efforts on offense, Lindsey Wilson also bested Georgetown 30-23 in total digs and 7.0 to 3.0 in total blocks. Logan Seagraves and Embry Burgess each nabbed a team-high seven digs for the locals.

Camryn Rich posted a match-high 28 assists to round out the team's all-around performance.

The 2022 regular season for the Blue Raider volleyball team wraps up on Sunday afternoon at 1 p.m. CST against Shawnee State University. The weekend contest will also be the program's "Senior Night!"
