Mustangs fall to Abilene Christian in home finale

WICHITA FALLS, Texas – Abilene Christian spoiled Midwestern State's bid for a perfect home season Saturday night at D.L. Ligon Coliseum as the Wildcats came away with a 32-30, 25-18, 25-12 Lone Star Conference wins.

The Mustangs, who fell to 23-8 and 7-4, were unable to overcome a sluggish night on the attack as the Mustangs committed 23 errors and hit a paltry .148.

MSU, who is assured of a spot in the Lone Star Conference postseason tournament in two weeks after Texas A&M-Commerce defeated Central Oklahoma earlier in the day, dropped into a four-way tie for third-place with ACU, Texas A&M-Commerce and Texas Womans' University with two matches to play.

MSU closes the regular season on the road next week with matches at TWU Thursday in Denton and at Texas A&M-Commerce on Saturday.

The top eight teams advanced to the postseason which will be held at the site of the first-place team in two weeks.

Erin Curry, Jennie Hutt and Jordan Schilling combined for 33 of ACU's 47 kills as the Wildcats hit a solid .298 as a team to improve to 21-8 on the season and 7-4 in the Lone Star Conference.

MSU also struggled defensively as the Mustangs recorded just two team blocks after turning in 13 in a five-set win over Angelo State on Thursday.

The Mustangs were led offensively by junior middle blocker Alysha Pritt, who finished with 10 kills, while senior outside hitter Jessica Ransom added nine and senior right-side hitter Whitney Maxwell added nine.

Senior setter Allison Schreiber finished with 36 assists, while Shay Velasquez and Katie Guehler led the back row effort with 17 and 10 digs, respectively.
