10/13/2017 | 9:10:00 | Women's Volleyball
The Southern Illinois volleyball team (4-14, 3-4) dropped to No. 20 Northern Iowa (15-6, 7-0) in three sets (25-16, 25-14, 25-17) Friday inside the McLeod Center.
Senior outside hitter Nellie Fredriksson hit .304 with nine kills and added six digs and two blocks. Senior outside hitter Abby Barrow added five kills and six digs while senior middle hitter Kolby Meeks led the Salukis with four blocks. Junior middle hitter Patience Brown chipped in three blocks, including two solo.
Sophomore setter Alayna Martin notched her sixth double-double of the season, as she dished out 11 assists and tallied a team-best 13 digs. Senior libero Ashley Edelen added 10 digs, which marked the 11th-straight match in which the Louisville, Ky. product has finished with at least 10 digs.
Two kills each by Fredriksson and Barrow staked SIU to an early 7-6 lead in the opening set before a 9-2 run put Northern Iowa ahead 15-9. Southern cut the deficit to five on four occasions, but the Panthers took set one, 25-17.
The Panthers' momentum carried over into the second set, as they opened an early 10-3 lead and took their largest lead, 23-11, on a Saluki attack error. Fredriksson's third kill of the frame and a solo stuff by Brown helped SIU stave off set point, but UNI sided out to take the second set, 25-14.
The Salukis got caught in a rotation in the third set as the Panthers used a 5-0 run to go up 16-9. A kill, followed by an ace by Brown highlighted a 5-0 run for Southern that got it to within four, 21-17, but Northern Iowa closed out the set, and the match, with four-straight points.
The Salukis are back on the road tomorrow, Oct. 14 at Drake. The match is scheduled for a 7 p.m. start time.
