VB: Rams Shoot Down Stars

OKLAHOMA CITY,  OK - The Texas Wesleyan volleyball (11-3,6-0) team finished out the weekend with a win over Oklahoma City University (5-6,4-2) at Abe Lemons Arena. In a highly contested Sooner Athletic Conference Matchup the Rams would come out victorious with a 3-1 (25-19, 25-23, 23-25, 25-12).

The Rams controlled set as they never trailed to their opponents. The Rams would take an 11-5 lead in the set to force an early timeout. Texas Wesleyan would continue to go on a run behind the arms of Hanna Rubis and Sydney Charlton. After an Alexandria lee ace the Stars had to use their second timeout. OCU would come storming back with their own run bringing the score to 24-19. With just one point needed to close the set Kendal king would hammer a ball down the line to end the set.
 
OCU took momentum from the first set into the second as this was a much closer contest. The two teams would battle back and forth throughout the set before the Stars were able to pull away from the Rams. With a score of 20-17 it seemed as if OCU would take the second set, but the rams would stay calm and inch their way back into the game. After a Lauren Richard's swing the set would be tied at 23. A net violation from the Stars would give the rams set point. The stars would go on to error again with a swing sending the ball out. That Costly mistake gave the Rams the 25-23 set win.
 
OCU Jumped out to an 11-7 lead over the Rams. The Stars would score four straight points that was capped off by a service ace forcing a Texas Wesleyan time out at 15-7. Texas Wesleyan would do their best to close out the game by going on an 8-3 run to cut the lead down to 13-18, but the Stars would take the set to avoid the sweep.
 
Texas Wesleyan would dominate the Stars in set four with a 25-12 victory to win the game. The Rams would hold the Stars to a -.053 hitting percentage while they went on to hit .462 in the set behind 14 kills and only 2 errors off 26 attempts.
 
Hanna Rubis finished the match with 13 kills while Sydney Charlton added eight of her own. Ruby O'Brien threw out 20 assists and Makenna Gantt added 17 of her own. Carly Unruh came up big with four blocks, and Alexandria Lee led all players with three aces. Andre Malek had a stellar performance with 35 digs.
