      Shockers never close the gap - 19-25 Iowa State in Set Two.

      .171 v .397

      Megan with eight kills, several with only three.

      I think the Shocks are getting killed on serve-receive.

        You're right about the serve receive.

      Iowa State has an excellent block, Schaben is a terminal hitter who is also good in back, Lazard and Holthaus are good, the setter is consistent, and Hillegas is a good libero. The Cyclones will make noise in the Big 12, along with TX, KU, Baylor, and KSU. Creighton was in deep trouble last night, coming out flat as I had feared and was enroute to being swept. Booth rolled the dice in Set 2 with the Jays down 7. She benched 2 starters, switched to a 6-2 (something she hasn't run in at least 5 years), and went to the 3 freshmen and a second setter. The momentum swung as dramatically as I've ever seen in a Jays game. All of a sudden we could handle the ISU block.

      After the game, Booth said, "I have no idea what lineup I'll go with on Sunday."

        Set Three

        Grace in for the first time in the match. Kora is still the second setter.

            Shockers have a four-point run to get the score to 12-14 and bring on an ISU TO.

              Shockers continue their good play and the Cyclones take their second TO at 19-16.

              19-18 and the Shocks get a TO.

                13-4 Shocker run. Taflinger is impressive for a freshman. Heck of a cut shot by Wright.

                  Shockers were really good the latter half of Set 3. Civita, what reflexes!

                    From 22-all, the Shocks score the last three points to take Set Three, 25-22.

                    .193 v .294

                    Megan is now 13-3-25 for .400.

                    Emma with seven kills and Regan with five with limited time.

                      If I am not mistaken the Shocks pulled of that 3rd set comeback and win with Tabitha on the bench.. Not sure if she is injured or just benched due to poor play.

                      Glad to see the Shocks show some fight.

                        A quick (and perhaps inaccurate) scan of the play-by-play indicates that Tabitha never got back to the front row. Not sure who was playing back row in her place.

                      Set Four

                      When the gap grows to 5-10, the Shocks take a TO.

                        Shockers trying to spike all the free balls, and often hit them into the net. Most teams I've seen are content to float them toward the back line and take a chance on defense.

                          11-13 and an ISU challenge of an out call.

                          The call stands.

                            14-15 to 14-18 and a TO by the Shocks.
