Columbia, MO – Austin Peay State University’s volleyball team had few answers to slow a red-hot Missouri squad, falling in three sets (10-25, 12-25, 12-25), Tuesday night, at the Hearnes Center.
Austin Peay (6-14) responded out the break, scoring four of the first five points. The Lady Govs held that lead until Missouri used a 7-0 run to turn a 9-7 APSU lead into a 14-9 Missouri advantage. The Tigers controlled the final set from there and posted a 25-12 victory.
“Missouri is a very solid team,” said Lady Govs head coach Taylor Mott. “Their serve kept us out of system all night as we struggled to pass. Sammie and Liz were our only bright spots on offense as Cami and Aubrey did well with the passes they were given.”
Freshman Sammie Ebright led Austin Peay with seven kills, going errorless on the attack until committing her lone error in the third set. Junior Liz Landon added four kills. However, their 12 combined kills accounted for the bulk of the Lady Govs 16-kill outing as they were held to a negative-.026 attack percentage.
Julia Towler and Carly Kan each had eight kills to pace the Missouri offense. The nation’s top hitting club finished with 40 kills and a .390 attack percentage.
Austin Peay home and returns to Ohio Valley Conference action when it hosts Southeast Missouri in a 7:00pm, Friday contest at the Dunn Center.
