CAMPBELLSVILLE, Ky. -- Spirited efforts in the second and third sets were cut short as the Lindsey Wilson College volleyball team lost 3-0 (13-25, 21-25, 22-25) to Mid-South Conference foe Campbellsville University Monday at the Powell Athletic Center.

The Tigers and their raucous crowd stymied Lindsey Wilson in the opening set, but the Blue Raiders were able to bounce back with a commendable comeback effort later in the match.

Lindsey Wilson (2-13, 2-3 MSC) appeared on its way to a 1-1 tie after rallying to take a 20-19 lead in the second set. However, Back-to-back kills by Campbellsville sophomore Samantha James gave the momentum back to the Tigers as they finished off the frame.

The third set was a close affair all the way through as well, with attack errors being the Blue Raiders' Achilles heel that led the Tigers (13-3, 4-1 MSC) to their fourth conference victory.

Junior Rachael Achieng led Lindsey Wilson with seven kills, while freshman Ashley Haworth added six. Haworth also contributed four service aces. Two Blue Raiders finished with double figures in digs as freshman Andrea Taylor and senior Sarah Kline collected 15 and 10, respectively.

Lindsey Wilson continues conference play at 7 p.m. CT on Tuesday, Sept. 29 against University of the Cumberlands at Biggers Sports Center.
