KNOXVILLE, Tennessee – It was a big comeback victory for University of Alabama volleyball on Sunday as the Crimson Tide fought back from a 2-1 match deficit for a hard-fought win in the fourth set against the Tennessee Volunteers to force a fifth and deciding set which Bama won. That 15-9 fifth-set win gave UA a win to close out the weekend. With the victory the Crimson Tide improves to 13-6 overall, 2-4 in the Southeastern Conference. The Volunteers are now 8-7, 1-5 SEC.
The Tide captured the win in the opening set 25-20 but the Vols came back for a 25-25 victory to tie it 1-1 in the second, then taking the lead over Bama with a 25-18 win in third. Alabama then rallied to win by two, 25-23, in the fourth set and claimed the match victory in the fifth 15-9.
Alabama senior Leah Lawrence and sophomores Ginger Perinar and Mahalia Swink all three posted career highs in kills. Lawrence had 19, Perinar had 18 and Swink came through with 14 kills. Haley McSparin was just off the double-digit mark with nine kills, as well as coming through with three big blocks. It was freshman Meghan Neelon posting her team-leading sixth double-double with 18 digs and a career-best 59 assists. Junior Quincey Gary led the Crimson Tide defense with 27 digs and tied a career high with three service aces.
Bama will hit the road to play Alabama State (15-7) this Thursday, October 12th at 7 p.m. CT, and then will be back in SEC play traveling to Baton Rouge, Louisiana to take on the LSU Tigers (13-4, 4-2 SEC) on Sunday, October 15th at 1 p.m. CT.
