New Mexico Junior College vs. Midland College

Midland, TX

After their recent three match skid Midland College coach Kristina Gafford had to get back to the basics in an effort to right the ship. Whatever the coaching staff did over the past four days proved to be the antidote as the Lady Chaps scored a huge WJCAC win over New Mexico Junior College. Midland College improved to 2-3 in the WJCAC and 10-7 overall in Wednesday's 25-19, 25-23, 25-22 victory. The loss dropped the Thunderbirds to 12-9 on the season and 3-2 in conference.

MC was led by Ipek Kusoglu and Luisina Sandrone who each recorded 11 kills. The setter duo of Jordan Eager and Mia Bell posted 16 and 15 assists each in the match. Bell also chipped in with 11 digs. The Lady Chaps put on an impressive defensive performance which included 64 total digs, eight block assists and two solo blocks.
