scaring Tadd did just that as she has so many times in the season coming up with an incredibly power ful spike to give CEU a little more breathing room From there on out the looked confident A little Eagles luck never hurt anybody either as CELTs Julia Leech showed everybody when a Dixie player spiked the ball directly at her She tried to him away because she didn't have time to react to the ball but it hit her in the head which kept the ball in play for teammate Dupin to spike the ball for a CEU point This is only one of many times that Leech proved to be a heads up player (no pun intended) From here on out everything pretty much went the Eagles way as Derrick showed when she spiked a Rebel overset back at them to get CEU the mate Garcia who helped to push the With CEU up 13-- 6 it wu

her own for the knowing that they had to win three straight games with nothEagles Dupin and Skaggs helped the Eagles cruise along by making ing to lose They seemed excited their net presence fell with

lead of the game at 1 CNCC started playing well again and they soon pushed back out front Tadd hit another powerful spike for the Eagles and Pincombe followed it with a shot down the line to bring the

the Eagles had another big turn out to cheer them on CNCC jumped out to the early 0 lead but that was very minimal CEU was to soon show us Dupin began the Eagle attack with her serving and was assisted by Tadd's spiking as they reeled off eight consecutive points Sksggs pitched in with some more of her dominating net appearance blocking a CNCC spike Tadd kept spiking the ball for CEU getting another call to go her way on a questionable call whether the ball wu in or not The Spartans slowed down the Eagles a little bit and came witn-i- n four point at 4 but Charisse Pincombe picked up a big spike to get CEU on the scoring side of the game again Dupin was later to make another big play as she gave up a spike and Upped the ball over the net in order not to run in to it Tadd also

blocked it the ban went back on CNCC side and their setter hit the ball a little to far on CElTs side and Pincombe spiked it back over for a point Dupin added another spike for CEU but the Spartans tried to come back with a service ace That didn't seem to bother the Lady Eagles as Leech came in to serve for the final two poinu On the game ending point two CNCC players stood and watched the ball
