The No. 7 Lady Buffs (12-2, 1-0 LSC) swept ACU in pretty convincing fashion. Though the third game was a come-from-behind 25-20 win, WT looked dominant against the preseason No. 2 in the conference.
Middle blockers Lauren Purdy and Melissa Harper led WT's offense, putting up 11 and 10 kills, respectively. The Lady Buffs were also superb on defense, putting together long rallies en route to the convincing conference and South Central region win.
Coach Jason Skoch was surprisingly upbeat and complimentary after the win, which hasn't happened much in his 14-match tenure as WT's head coach. He's still not satisfied, though, and was talking strategy with palyers as I was finishing up my story for Friday's paper at about 9:10 p.m.
The Lady Buffs play Angelo State on Saturday at 2 p.m. in The Box.
