Volleyball Continues Gritty Play Despite Scoreboard Output

DALLAS, Texas – The St. Mary's Volleyball Team continued to show a lot of grit for the second afternoon in a row, despite not getting a W on the scoreboard, falling in four sets to UAFS at DBU on Saturday afternoon, 25-20, 25-20, 17-25, 25-18.
 
The Rattlers wrapped up the non-conference season with a 4-7 record and turn their attention to Lone Star Conference play beginning on Friday at Texas Woman's at 6 p.m.
 
Against the Lions (6-5), the Rattlers posted season- and career-highs all over the place as well as senior Sadie Hough (Cleburne, Texas) tying the school record for hitting percentage (10-14 attacks) with her .900 (9-0-10) day. Hough knots Nicole Williams, who had nine kills on 10 swings against Tarleton State on Nov. 2, 2001.
 
Freshman Landri Withers (Stephenville, Texas) once again led the team in kills, posting a career-high 16 to lead all players. She also moved into the serving rotation for the first time all year and responded with three aces in 13 attempts. Fellow freshman Laurene Robinson (Bedford, Texas) also tied her career-high with nine kills, hitting .348 (9-1-23).
 
Both setters, sophomore Cali Nims (Corpus Christi, Texas) and freshman Abbey Stiffler (York, Pa.) posted season-highs with 20 assists each and freshman libero Alyssa Koehl (New Braunfels, Texas) led the match with 14 digs.
 
StMU and UAFS both had good days at the serving line as the Rattlers had six aces with only two errors and the Lions tallied 11 aces with only three miscues.
