HATTIESBURG, Miss. - Louisiana's Ragin' Cajuns volleyball team returned to the win column Friday afternoon posting a 3-0 (30-21, 30-17, 30-13) sweep of Jackson State in the first day of competition at the Forrest General SportsCare Classic here at the Payne Center on the campus of the University of Southern Mississippi.
Cajuns were paced by the setter combo of senior Beth Henson and junior Tami Harvey. Henson had 19 assists and led the team in kills with 15 and also had a team-high five service aces.
Harvey led the Cajuns with 20 assists and also chipped in a team-high seven digs. Lindsey Bermes had nine kills for the Cajuns.
Jackson State committed 18 attack errors, while the Cajuns only committed nine.
Angela Franke led the Tigers with 24 assists, while Chinyere Marner and Katrina Dunn led the team with seven kills each. Cara Jones committed a team-high nine attack errors.
The sweep was the Cajuns second of the season and ended a two-match slide. It was fueled by a season-high team attack percentage of .463 as the Cajuns tallied 53 kills on 95 attempts while committing just nine errors.
The second day of the Forrest General SportsCare Classic will continue Saturday as UL Lafayette takes on Sun Belt Conference-member Arkansas-Little Rock in a 10 a.m. match and then concludes tournament play against host-Southern Mississippi in a 4 p.m. match.
