Huntsville, AL – Eagles step up to capture a win over Oakwood University’s Lady Ambassadors on the road. Eagles competed in an all-out 5 set rally at Oakwood University and had just enough to finish the match on top.
Date: 10/17/17
Location: Oakwood University, Huntsville, AL
Result: Won in 5
Highlights: After losing in 5 to Oakwood in Huntsville in 2016, the Eagles showed what they were made of by closing out on a 5 set win in 2017, despite being without junior libero Kayla Oliver and sophomore setter, McKenzie McDaniel.
Quote: From Coach Christy Sherbrook: “These women dug in to pull a come-from-behind win in the fifth set, despite being behind 2-9. The Eagles learned tonight how to pull each other (and themselves) up and fight through to the finish. I couldn’t be prouder.”
