So it appears that they have the school logos/icons backwards on the game stat page. Which means we won the first set and unfortunately lost the last two sets; so it appears that we lost 25 to 20 in the third set and are down two sets to one right now. I say that because if you look at the play-by-play, you can kind of tell which place is right and which place is wrong.

We win the fourth set to tie it 2 sets all. Headed to the fifth set.
Note: Came from behind to win the fourth set.

…Note--did not see Chloe Cline listed in the box score. Good catch. Looks like she only played in the third and fourth sets. She entered in the third set when the score was 11-17 and started the fourth set and played most if not all of the fourth set.

Ok, off to a better start today, as we took the first set against CMU 25-17 -- let's keep it going! I have a feeling this could be a 5 set match.
UPDATE: Second set lost, 26-24 -- cannot seem to win the close ones, although we did well to come from being down 18-12 at one point.
Fernando is not with the team due to his PR team commitment -- having him there yesterday could of been a difference maker in the close loss to SEMO.
Note--did not see Chloe Cline listed in the box score.
Kora also went out with an injury against SEMO, but fortunately, was able to play against CMU. Overall, there were a lot of positives to take away from the first weekend.

We were in control, but opened the door for USI to make this a tighter match than it should of been. Credit goes to Brooke Springer for stepping up in the first 2 games, then Emilee Scheuman making the most of her time on the court (came in midway thru the 3rd set and most of 4th set) to help us close out the match. (10 kills and .421 hitting % for her)
Emilee's grandparents made the trip from Ft Wayne and were sitting behind me -- glad she got the playing time.

Glad Aces got the W but that result was wayyyy closer than it should be. USI’s program is terrible and will be the bottom of the OVC.

Aces with a nice 3-1 win over Samford tonight. Dropped the first set and then fell behind 5-0 in the second. Really great job by the team of staying focused and picking up the level of play tonight. We play North Alabama tomorrow. Hopefully, will be another win and an opportunity to see some of the reserves.

Great win, although I still see us struggling to win out games easily. We were up 21-12 in the 3rd and allowed them to pull within 4 before we closed it out.
Feliciano appears to be regaining her form. .390 hitting % and only 1 error in 41 attacks.
Hoping to see Chloe and Lu get some playing time.

Looks like we came out flat this morning and lost 3-0 (22-25, 18-25, 25-27) to St. Thomas -- they were 1-5 coming into the match against us. I thought we were about to rally and turn the corner in the 3rd set but failed to convert on 2 set points we had, eventually losing 25-27. Hitting .125% will not translate into many wins. Hope they can bounce back this afternoon with a match at 4pm vs Northern Illinois and Saturday 5pm vs DePaul.
Still not sure why Chloe Cline is not seeing any playing time.

Looks like this team can be good when they focus but tends to play to the level of the competition. Not sure when the head coach returns but hopefully that helps as well.

Aces lose in three sets to DePaul but all three sets were very close.
