Prairie Stars Fall to Ouachita Baptist Tigers

The UIS volleyball team dropped a match to the Ouachita Baptist Tigers at the Denton Volleyfest on Friday. The Tigers claimed three sets in a row, winning 25-21, 25-23, 25-13.

Neither team took a definitive lead as the match began. Ouachita Baptist went on a 7-1 run late in the set to lead 21-16. UIS scored six of the last eight points with the contribution of four kills by Eirini Glynou, but fell 25-21.

The second set played out similarly. The opponents remained within one point until the Tigers went on an 8-point run to lead 15-8. UIS closed much of that ground before Ouachita could make another 7-1 run late in the set. The Stars nearly reigned the Tigers back into two-point range before the Tigers won 25-23.

Ouachita Baptist pushed out to a 5-1 lead before taking complete control of the third and final set and winning 25-13.

Eirini Glynou claimed her third double-double in five games with 16 kills and 11 digs. Amanda McConnell added 13 more digs for 60 so far this fall and a career total of 1,164.

Defensively, UIS combined for five solo blocks and 51 digs. 

UIS, now 1-4, still has two matches ahead of them at the Denton Volleyfest. Tournament Central
