Lady Govs Measure UTC Volleyball

CHATTANOOGA, TN -- Austin Peay got double-digit kills from three players and handed UTC a three-game defeat (30-22, 30-28, 30-13) Thursday night at Maclellan Gym.

The Lady Mocs (13-10) got 13 kills and 19 digs from Cheryl Theis, but it was no match for APSU's Amy Walk (17 kills and 15 digs), Andrea Preston (10 kills and 11 digs) and Natalie Rossier (10 kills). The Lady Govs (11-10) got 32 assists from Jamie deTurck, who subbed for Cindy Wall, who was injured in pregame warm-ups. Wall entered the lineup deep into the second game, and she still finished with 16 assists.

UTC's Emily McGinnis had 29 assists for the Lady Mocs. Kari Krouse had 14 digs and six kills. She added one ace to her season total and continues to add to her single-season record, which stands at 70.

The Lady Mocs hit just .128 for the match, including a -.030 in the final game when APSU hit a rousing .475.

Chattanooga will try to right the ship on Saturday when Southern Conference foe Georgia Southern visits Maclellan Gym at 2 pm.
