Gainesville, GA- The #22 ranked Lee University Flames (28-5, 11-0) volleyball team made short work of the Golden Tigers (21-9, 4-6) tonight in SSAC action, winning 25-13, 25-8 and 25-15. Brenau was never in the match, but did play with the visitors for a short time in game 3 before the Flames put the match away. "We still have a mental barrior to overcome when it comes to this team, but I was encouraged about the way we played in the early part of the third game," said Coach Meredith Matthews.Statistical leaders for the match included Maida Smajic with 15 receptions and five digs, Kerry Abernathy with 12 receptions and two digs, Karen Green (seven kills, four digs and three blocks) and Audra VanArsdale with 12 assists, six digs and three kills. The Tigers will venture outside of conference play next Wednesday with a match at Reinhardt before finishing up the regular season with SSAC games with Brewton Parker and Shorter.
