Next Blue Raiders advance to opening round of national playoffs Saturday, November 17, 2012, at a time, date, and venue TBA By Chris Wells News from Lindsey Wilson College LOUISVILLE, Ky. -- For a second straight year, Lindsey Wilson College volleyball won the Mid-South Conference Tournament Championship. This season, the Blue Raiders did it as the No. 2-seed at the MidAmerican Sports Center. Lindsey Wilson (28-12) upset top-seed and No. 11-ranked Georgetown College to earn the MSC's automatic bid into the NAIA National Championships. The Blue Raiders won today's final 29-27, 25-19, 23-25, 28-26. Four Blue Raiders posted double-digit kills and Andrea Taylor provided another double-double as Lindsey Wilson won its fifth straight match. Lindsey Wilson opened the championship match scoring the final three points of the first set to beat the Tigers 29-27. The opening set featured a back-and-forth affair with 17 ties and seven lead changes. Down set-point at 27-26, Kailey Moorhead tied the set at 27-27 with one of her 12 kills in the match. Lindsey Wilson won the final two points of the one a pair of Georgetown attacking errors to take the 1-0 advantage. Lindsey Wilson never trailed in the second set and built as much as a nine-point lead en route to a 25-19 win to go up 2-0 in the match. The Tigers (33-4) claimed their first set of the match in the third set with a 25-23 win to climb within 2-1. Leading 19-18 late in the set, Georgetown scored five of the next six points to take a 23-19 lead. The Blue Raiders fought off three set points to get the match to 24-23 before Caraline Maher closed out the set with a kill and the win. Maher ended with 15 kills. In the decisive set, the Blue Raiders jumped out to a 9-3 lead thanks to the hot hand of MSC Freshman of the Year Courtney Doyle and Sarah Anderson. The pair combined for three kills and a service ace during the opening-set run. Hayne finished with a team-high 16 kills while Doyle added 10. The Blue Raiders extended their lead to as many as eight points (15-7) in the set and looked to be in complete control up 22-15 before the Tigers mounted a comeback. Georgetown scored eight straight points thanks to the combination of Maher and MSC Player of the Year Rachel Eubanks to take a 23-22 lead. Eubanks ended with a match-high 20 kills. A Doyle kill and a Eubanks error gave the Blue Raiders their first of three championship points leading 24-23. Eubanks tied the match at 24-24 and again at 25-25 with kills to prolong the match. Following a Lindsey Wilson error, Georgetown served for the set at 26-25 only to commit its 22nd hitting error of the match. Doyle did the rest. Back-to-back service aces -- her fourth and fifth of the match - gave the Blue Raiders the 28-26 set win and the conference championship. Taylor closed the match with 49 assists and 14 digs. Kristi Hager led the Blue Raider defense with a team-high 24 digs in the match. Lindsey Wilson also committed just three receiving errors compared to 12 from the Tigers. Sarah Anderson joined Moorhead, Doyle and Hayne with double-digit kills. She finished with 11. Lindsey Wilson advances to next Saturday's NAIA National Championship Opening Round. While the Blue Raiders know they will be in the 36-team field, they will have to wait to see who and where they will play as the NAIA releases the national tournament brackets on Monday, November 12, 2012.
