The Alice Lloyd Lady Eagles, under the guidance of Coach Jason Stowers and Jolene Watts, opened up the 2012 Volleyball season on Saturday by traveling to Cincinnati to face Cincinnati Clermont University for two games. Following are the results of each match.

Volleyball First Match

Match One
ALC: 11,9,13
CCU: 25, 25, 25

ALC’s youthful squad played hard, but showed some expected season opening jitters as they fell in straight sets. The Lady Eagles got behind early, and despite a good effort, were unable to mount a comeback.

 

Match Two
ALC: 12,13,14
CCU: 25, 25, 25

The Lady Eagles gave a good effort and showed improvement, but unfortunately dropped a straight set decision. The contests were tight midway through each game, but the hosts used their experience to pull away down the stretch.

Senior Rebekah Bevins (Chapmanville, WV.) and sophomore Katie McFarland (Church Hill, TN) were singled out for their solid contributions at the net and in the middle, while freshman Breanna Goble (Paintsville) recorded many impressive kills during the day and showed good promise.

The Lady Eagles return to action on September 12th, when they travel to New Albany, Indiana to face the Lady Grenadiers of Indiana University- Southeast. The match begins at 7 PM.
