The Lady Bisons defeated the Stetson Hatters 3-0 in the first Atlantic Sun Conference home match Friday night in Allen Arena.
Lipscomb won set one 25-18, set two 25-19 and set three 25-11.
“The focus of our girls was fantastic from the very first point,” Lipscomb coach Brandon Rosenthal said, according to Lipscomb Athletics. “We have seen it in practice. We saw it Tuesday night [in a loss to Western Kentucky].”
Right side senior Brittnay Estes and outside hitter freshman Lauren Anderson performed effectively with 11 kills a piece.
Libero sophomore Brittany Thomas had a match-high 16 digs.
Freshmen Hannah Hutcheson, Carli Anderson and Marcella Emmanuelli debuted in their first home match, with kills from both Hutcheson and Anderson.
“I think we frustrated Stetson early,” Rosenthal said. “From there, and really in set two, we did a fantastic job of picking up balls. Everything they threw our way we were on it. I told them to go out and play their game and they did.”
The Lady Bisons will return to Allen Arena Sunday afternoon to play Florida Gulf Coast University in an A-Sun match.
