The Lipscomb volleyball team defeated the Flordia Gulf Coast Eagles 3-0 Sunday afternoon in Allen Arena.

The Bisons won set one 25-14, set two 25-19 and the final set 25-15.

“This is exactly what we planned to do to start out the season,” head coach Brandon Rosenthal said. “I love the fact that our girls are really dialed in right now.”

Defeating the Eagles brought the Bisons’ Atlantic Sun conference record to an undefeated 3-0 record.

Lipscomb started off each match with a strong lead and Rosenthal said that was the key to success for the game.

Outside hitter sophomore Chloe Rogers and right side senior Brittnay Estes tied for the most kills during the game with 13 each.

“We apply a lot of pressure,” Rosenthal said. “When you do that, you make opponents start to feel uncomfortable. We want to control our destiny.”

Lipscomb will take on North Florida at their home court in Jacksonville at 6 p.m. Friday.

“North Florida has always played tough the last few years,” Rosenthal said. “I expect a gutsy, grinding match like they have always given us.”
