Women's Volleyball Drop First G-MAC Game in Exciting Five Set Match

MIDLAND, Mich. — The Lake Erie women's volleyball team traveled to Northwood University to face the Timberwolves for their first G-MAC match of the season. In an exciting five set match, the Storm would fight all the way to 17-15, yet were bested by Northwood. Lake Erie now moves to a 0-1 conference record and are 1-8 overall. 

The Storm started off the first set with a kill from senior captain Dora Olah. Senior Katelyn McMoore and freshman Ni'yah Fuggs were quick to follow with their first kills of the match. Lake Erie grew a 6-2 lead over the Timberwolves, as their defense and offense stayed tight. Northwood was able to tie it up at 17-17, yet errors from the Timberwolves gave Lake Erie the lead again going into the end of the set. Northwood was able to secure the set from errors and kills, with a 26-24 win. 

The second set was consistent in the beginning, yet the Storm was looking to force a fourth set after a run from Olah. Lake Erie held a 11-5 lead over the Timberwolves, with kills from McMoore and errors from Northwood. Solid offense from senior Alexandra Matthews, senior Julianna Krebasch, and McMoore helped Lake Erie take the set 25-18.

The third set was back and forth, with both teams looking to take their second set. The battle took the set to a 22-22 tie, with a pair of errors and a service ace from Krebasch handing Lake Erie the 25-23 win. 

Despite the Storm putting away 13 kills over Northwood's 12 kills in the fourth set, the Timberwolves took the game 25-21. Efforts from Olah, Krebasch, senior Anna Lewis, and Matthews kept the Storm in the game throughout the set. 

In a final fifth set, the Storm started off with a 4-1 lead after a run from junior Brooklyn Broadway. Neither side of the net let up, with a 14-14 tie at the end. An error from the Timberwolves gave Lake Erie match point, yet Northwood put down a pair of kills with a Storm error to give them the match winning set, 17-15.
