Austin Peay Lady Govs Volleyball set for Tuesday home opener against Murray State Racers
Still, head coach Taylor Mott believes the challenges of the first month have given her a glimpse of her team’s potential, particularly since Stotts returned in time for the OVC’s opening weekend, Friday and Saturday.
Stotts returned for OVC opening matches at Jacksonville State and Tennessee Tech and was in the thick of the offense. While she led the team with 32 kills in the two matches, she struggled with her consistency and was charged with 28 attack errors on a team-high 117 attempts. “Getting Jada back is huge for us,” said Mott. “She’s not at 100 percent yet, but she’ll only get better as she gets back into game shape.”
“Liz and Hillary were big for us this weekend,” said Mott. “Liz has been very consistent the last four times she’s been on the court and has provided us some depth. Hillary got a break and came back against Tennessee Tech and played to her capability which will be huge in conference play for us.” Scouting the OppositionThe loss at Jacksonville State snapped the Racers four-match win streak which equaled a four-match win streak earlier in the campaign. Sophomore Alyssa Lelm leads Murray State with 209 kills (3.32 kills per set) while posting a league-leading .365 attack percentage. Last Season’s Meetings and Series History
