That made Graceland 3-1 in the Lindenwood tourney and 5-1 overall. Check the posted box scores for full scores and stats on the entire weekend.
"We were a little inconsistent Friday but pulled out some wins because of veteran leadership," stated McDole from St. Louis. "Today we were a totally different team. Very consistent as a core and everyone contruibuted. I credit our servers and especially our passers. The passing this weekend made it easy for us to be successful. We are in a good place right now but it's still early in the season. We'll move forward from here and continue to progress," finished McDole.
The Jackets now stand at 5-1 overall and will face conference rival Park University in Lamoni this Tuesday evening. Stay tuned to the Jacket athletics website for continuing coverage on the men's volleyball team and all of Jacket athletics.
