FORT WORTH, TX: The Texas Wesleyan University volleyball team (3-2) took three straight sets after dropping game one (22-25, 29-27, 25-21, 25-19) to Southwestern Assemblies of God University (1-5) in the home opener at the Sid Richardson Center Tuesday night.
 
The match was extremely tight throughout, with neither team able to get out to a comfortable lead before the other forced their way back into the game.
 
SAGU took the first game 25-22 with a late rally that ended with a Lady Lion ace.
 
The Lady Lions looked like they would take game two, but a late Lady Ram rally tied the match at one apiece, 29-17.
 
SAGU hung around to keep it close, but were never able to sustain a lead or make a comeback as the Lady Rams took game three 25-21, and hit all cylinder in game four with a 25-19 win.
 
Head Coach Christy Clawson pointed out the team is battling some inconsistency, “considering the stage of the season and our youth, some inconsistency isn’t uncommon”, she continued, “SAGU is always a tough match…we came out a little flat, we’re still trying to find the right mix.”
