Jewell Volleyball Downs Quincy in Five-Set Thriller

The William Jewell volleyball earned their second win in the past three games with a five-set victory over Quincy University by scores of 31-29, 15-25, 25-14, 22-25, 15-11. With the win, the Cardinals move to 5-15 on the season and 2-8 in Great Lakes Valley Conference play, while the Hawks drop to 8-10 and 2-8 respectively. 

HOW IT HAPPENED
  • Set One: The Cardinals went on a 7-3, led by two kills from Paityn Hardison, to take a 17-13 lead midway through the opening set. The Hawks responded with a 6-1 run of their own to take a 19-18 lead. The final points of the opener went back-and-forth with the Cards staving off set point three times before back-to-back kills by Lauren Castaneda and Hardison capped the set 31-29. 
  • Set Two: In set two, the Hawks took control early, jumping out to a 21-12 lead and never looked back, taking the set 25-15. 
  • Set Three: The roles reversed in the third set with Jewell breaking open a 22-13 advantage capped by a service ace by Stefanie Richterkessing. The Hawks recorded a kill by setter Sara Rathbun but two kills from Hardison and an error by QU gave the Cards the set 25-14. 
  • Set Four: Neither team could break away in set four until a a 6-1 run by the Hawks gave them a late lead 22-17. Jewell recorded three straight kills, including two by Lily Johnson, climb within one, 22-21 but scored just once more, falling 25-22. 
  • Set Five: The Cardinals were in control for much of set five, turning a 4-4 game into a 11-4 advantage on seven straight points, led by two kills each from Johnson and Maddie Wingert. The Hawks battled back to trail by four but Rau sealed the set with a kill of the Quincy block to win 15-11.
