Women's Volleyball Scores Straight-Set Victory Over Montreat

Elizabeth Cook led the way with a .800 (8-0-10) hitting performance.

CLEVELAND, Ga. – Truett McConnell women's volleyball (22-8, 12-4 AAC) earned its 12th conference win with a 3-0 (25-21, 25-18, 25-16) victory over Montreat (5-17, 3-13 AAC) Tuesday night.
 
Elizabeth Cook led the offense with her .800 hitting percentage, which included eight kills on ten attacks with no errors. Carline Yeager and Grace Lamontagne provided double-digit assists while Julia Fisher had 16 digs on the match.
 
"My setters and I were clicking and every ball I got tonight was perfect," Cook said. "I really enjoyed being out there on the court tonight."
 
Truett opened with a 7-3 lead in the first set before the Cavaliers evened things up with a 5-1 scoring run. Down by two, the away team, with the help of three Lady Bear errors, strung four in a row to force a timeout by the home squad. With a 15-12 Montreat advantage, TMU pulled together to force five unanswered and take the lead back.
 
Another 4-0 run by the Lady Bears gave them a four-point cushion late in the set, and with a 21-19 lead, they scored four of the last six points to go ahead 1-0 in the match.
 
The home team again caught fire to start the set, as it scored six of the first seven points as Montreat called a timeout. The Cavaliers answered back with a 6-2 run to draw within one, but it couldn't hold the momentum as Truett pushed away and created a three-point gap.
 
With a 15-15 score, four straight Lady Bear kills, two by Kaitlyn Roper, made it a four-point game. With the home team up 20-17, a pair of strikes by Alexis Mills paved the way for a 5-1 run to end the second set.
 
It was all Truett in the third set with an 11-3 start. Montreat was able to stop the bleeding and match what the home team scored, but it couldn't put together a decisive run, leading to a nine-point TMU set win and the sixth straight-set win in AAC play.
 
"The vibes are very high, and everyone in the locker room is super excited," Cook said. "Everyone is clicking right now, and the team bond is great."
 
The Lady Bears conclude action at home for the 2026 season with a Noon start time scheduled vs. Columbia College on Saturday, Oct. 24.
