Saluki Volleyball downs Indiana State, 3-1
10/27/2017 | 10:41:00 | Women's Volleyball
The Salukis recorded a season-high 14 blocks in the four-set win over the Sycamores.
The Southern Illinois volleyball team downed Indiana State, 3-1 (21-25, 25-20, 25-22, 25-19), Friday night in a Missouri Valley Conference clash.
The Salukis improves to 5-17 overall and 4-7 in league action while Indiana State falls to 7-16 on the season and 5-6 in conference play.
KEY MOMENTS
-After dropping the first set, 25-21, SIU rallied from a 10-5 deficit in set two with a 5-0 run to force an Indiana State timeout. Alison Thomas' second career service ace gave SIU a 17-14 advantage, but the Sycamores used a 3-1 spurt to get to within one, 18-17. The Salukis scored five of the next six points to open up a 23-18 advantage. The Sycamores then closed the gap with back-to-back kills, but SIU scored the next two, highlighted by Patience Brown's block of a sneak attempt by Indiana State's setter on set point.
-Both sides hit over .300 in set three, as SIU hit .361 and Indiana State hit at a .333 clip. Southern sided out late to pull ahead 23-21 on a kill Maggie Nedoma, and SIU again went to Nedoma on set point for the 25-22 win.
-SIU hit just .222 in set four, but forced nine Indiana State hitting errors and limited the Sycamores to a .049 hitting percentage in the 25-19 victory.
