The No. 5 Lady Buffs looked impressive against UT-Permian Basin on Thursday, sweeping the Lady Falcons in their season and home opener at WT Fieldhouse.
In fact, first-year WT coach Jason Skoch said he thinks it went a little too smoothly, and he was hoping UTPB would push WT a little more as they head into matches with No. 19 Nova (Fla.) Southeastern at 11 a.m. and No. 4 Grand Valley State at 7 p.m.
Senior outside hitter Natalie Johnson led the Lady Buffs in kills with 12, followed by fellow seniors Melissa Harper (MB) with nine and Laura Prinsen (RS) with eight.
Freshmen libero Lauren Beville made her college and WT debut with 10 digs, tied for the team lead with Lauren Thedford and Katie Rickwartz. Rickwartz led the team with 37 assists.
Beeville graduated from Hereford, where she won a Class 4A state title with the Lady Whitefaces. She said that, even playing with the super-competitive Herd, her debut was "nerve-wracking."
