South Carolina 3 , Houston Baptist 1 |
Houston, TX |
The Gamecocks finished off the Rice Invitational winning two of three matches, closing things out with a win over Houston Baptist. Carolina took three of four sets and Mikayla Shields and Aubrey Ezell were named to the all-tournament team. Ezell's three aces moved her up to a tie for fifth all-time at USC. Set one was dominated by Carolina, as a six point run with the game tied at 5-5 set the tone. A kill by Brittany McLean got the run started, with five strong serves from Courtney Koehler leading to four attack errors from the Huskies. A kill by Shields at 14-8 kicked off a four point run that also featured a kill by Jess Vastine and two services aces by Shields to put the set away. USC would win the set 25-14. Things started well in the second set as Carolina got out to a 4-1 lead behind a service ace from Ezell and a kill by Claire Edwards, with the score 14-12 in USC's favor, HBU suddenly went on a seven point run that would lead to a set win for them. Set three saw the Gamecocks retake control of the match. USC had a 5-1 lead early on thanks to a pair of kills by Shields and would hang on from there for a 25-22 set win. Carolina claimed the match with a strong fourth set. It was close at 7-5, but a kill by Edwards started a four point run that pushed the Gamecock lead to 11-5. Another four point run featuring three kills by Brittany McLean all but put the match away, and a final kill by Aubrey Ezell made it a 25-18 set win and a match victory. |
