        Austin Peay was unable to crack Central Arkansas, but Ginny Gerig and Cecily Gable forced a third set against the Bears number one pairing after they took the second set in dominant fashion, 21-6, before falling 15-10 in the third set. The veteran-newcomer duo of Ashley Slay and Cori Theiss also stole a set from the Bears, winning the first set 21-15, but their late push came up short in the deciding set.

        Later in the afternoon, the Govs looked to be gaining momentum against Mercer, but the three set heroics of Jenna Panning and Haley Turner and the dominant offense of Kaylee Taff and Chloe Stitt fell short, as the Govs lost 3-2 to Mercer.

        Panning and Turner opened the number two pairing, dropping a close set 21-23, before holding off the charging Bears 26-24. In the deciding set, the Governors’ duo topped Mercer taking the set 15-9. In the number five pairing, Taff and Stitt worked seamlessly to dominate the Bears with a two-set victory, 21-15, 21-16.

        The Governors will return to the beach, 3 p.m., Friday, against Lincoln Memorial, in Jefferson City, Tenn.

        Be sure to follow the Govs on Twitter at @AustinPeayBVB for updates throughout the weekend, and prep for the next matchups by checking out the Governors’ Forecast.
