September 22, 2007

Lacey, WA – Saint Martin’s put up a strong fight but could beat Seattle Pacific falling in three, 30-20, 30-23, 30-25, Saturday night at the SMU Pavilion.

Game one stayed close until halfway through. Saint Martin’s was down by two, 15-13, when Seattle Pacific went on a 10-4 run to capture an eight point lead. The gap was too big for the Saints to overcome as the Falcons picked up the win.

The Falcons were able to pull away in game two and establish an eight point lead at 18-10. But the Saints battled back to get within two at 20-18. With the score 26-23, advantage Falcons, SPU managed to score the final four points of the game for the win.

The Saints battled with the Falcons in game three. A kill by SPU’s Angie Wodrich broke things open starting an 8-2 run to put the Falcons up by seven, 24-17. Saint Martin’s pulled within four at 25-21 but Seattle Pacific strung together another four in a row to increase the deficit to eight. The Saints never gave up with four in row of their own but it was too little too late as the Falcons were able to fend off the Saints for the win.

Shealun Campisi had 10 kills and seven digs for the Saints. Kirstyn Druzianich posted 11 digs while Andrea Tarbet had 10.

The Saints have a bye this Thursday before heading to Western Oregon to take on the Wolves on the 29th.
