The Anderson University volleyball team dropped two matches during the Illinois College Tournament on Saturday in Jacksonville, Ill.
Luther (1-3) locked up a 25-17, 25-11, 25-19 win against the Ravens (1-3) in the first match. Illinois College (4-0) took down Anderson by a score of 25-8, 28-26, 25-14 in the second match.
"This was definitely not the start of the season we anticipated," Coach Tami Miller said. "We had a lot of growing pains as we continue to work with a young roster. We need more production out of our returners offensively and our ball control needs to improve, so we can effectively run our offense."
In Match 1, Shelby Lasure and Lauren Dungan scattered 13 digs and 12 digs, respectively. Olivia Ricica notched six kills and Carmen Soloria provided nine assists. Anderson was held to a -.019 hitting percentage while Luther finished with a .135 attack percentage.
In Match 2, Illinois College powered to a .248 hitting percentage while the Ravens were held to a .010 hitting percentage. Dungan produced 17 digs and two service aces while Lasure recorded two blocks.
The Ravens are scheduled for a triangular on Saturday, Sept. 9 in St. Louis. Anderson opens with host Webster University (0-3) at 11 a.m. ET. The Ravens then face off with Hannibal-LaGrange University (0-7) at 1 p.m. ET.
