The LaGrange College Panthers Volleyball Team (5-15) return home after a split result in this weekend's tri-match against Agnes Scott and host Maryville College in which they were bested by the Scots 3-0, but finished strong by taking down the Scotties 3-1.

MC simply outpaced LC in the first set, winning 25-18 to take a 1-0 lead. The second set was much more competitive, as LaGrange led on three seperate occasions throughout, but could not quite finish down the stretch as the Scots took the second frame 25-20, now leading 2-0. The final set was all Maryville, as they made short work of the visiting Panthers 25-14 to win the match 3-0.

The first two sets were dominated by LaGrange, winning both by scores of 25-20 and 25-16, respectively. Unwilling to bend to the will of a rolling LC squad, AS responded with a huge third set win to keep the match alive as they took the third stanza 26-24. Unamused by the defiant efforts of their fellow visitors, the Panthers put forth one of their most dominant performances of the entire afternoon, as they won the fourth and final set emphatically 25-17 and took home their second CCS win of the season.
