CARBONDALE, Ill. - Southern Illinois Women's Volleyball was swept by UIC Friday night in Carbondale.Â
The Salukis (10-13, 3-9 MVC) had chances to swing the match in their favor early, but could not take advantage in key moments and UIC (17-7, 9-3 MVC) pulled away to sweep the contest.
Kelly Franklin led the Salukis with 9 kills, while Larissa Seger denied four attacks and Anna Jaworski tallied 14 assists.
UIC held a small lead throughout the majority of set one, but Southern sent the frame to deuces after three straight points capped by a kill from Kelly Franklin. The rally was to no avail as the Flames scored back-to-back points to go up 1-0 in the match.
SIU led set two 9-3, but a service error gave UIC enough of a spark to storm back and win the set 25-18, highlighted by a 6-0 run at the end of set two.
The Flames never trailed in set three and completed the sweep with a 25-17 victory.
The Salukis had no answer for Zahria Woodard, who had seven blocks on the night and fueled the UIC effort.
UP NEXT
Southern Illinois will look to salvage the weekend with a date against Valparaiso Saturday. First serve is scheduled for 5 p.m.
