Panthers clash with Clark at home

LaGrange College Volleyball Team looks to avenge 3-1 early season loss to Clark Atlanta University (Sept. 11) as LC hosts the Panthers from down the road this Wednesday (Oct. 23) at 7 p.m.

The Teams
The LaGrange Panthers hold a 7-16 (4-8 CCS) overall record which is the most single-season wins for LC since 2019. As a unit, the Panthers average 16 digs, 9.9 kills and 8.8 assists per set. Freshman outside hitter Ella Kahikina continues to lead the team in points (198), kills (166) and service aces (25). In 65 sets played, this averages to 3.04 points, 2.55 kills and .38 service aces per set. Freshman libero Julia Damico has also been playing outstanding for the Panthers. The Charlotte, Florida native has secured a team-high 343 assists (4.18 per set) and 230 digs (2.8 per set). Another freshman who has made a big impact for the Panthers this season is middle hitter Claire Titus. The freshman leads the team in blocks (30) and is top-three in kills (127) and service aces (22). With having played 81 sets, this averages to 1.57 kills, .37 blocks and .27 service aces per set.

The CAU Panthers recently improved to 8-9 (6-4 SIAC) after beating Fort Valley State University 3-1 on the road (Oct. 17). As a team, CAU averages 12.1 digs, 10.3 kills and 9.6 assists. Senior outside hitter Shynique McGee leads the Panthers with 191.5 points off of a team-high 174 kills. This averages out to 3.19 points and 2.90 kills per set (60 sets played). Sophomore libero Nakayla James posted a Panthers-high 185 digs in 60 sets for a solid 3.08 digs per set. 

Keys to the Match
One thing that stands out about the CAU team statistics is that they average more errors in kills, ball handling and service compared to their opponents. If LC can limit their own mistakes and capitalize on the visitor errors, it will put LaGrange in a good position to grab the home win.

Where to Watch
The home Wednesday match is set to start at 7 p.m. and it will be streaming live here.
