MORRIS, Minn.—The Bethany Lutheran volleyball team (1-2 overall, 1-2 UMAC) fell 3-0 to Minnesota Morris (1-1, 1-1) Saturday. The Cougars won 25-20, 25-12, and 28-26.

In the first set, Morris jumped to a 12-5 lead and never looked back. A similar story was true in the second frame as a big run put the Cougars ahead 12-4 and never relinquished the lead.

In the third set, the Vikings compiled a late rally to knot it at 24 all. BLC moved ahead 26-25, but three straight points from Morris sealed the sweep.  

Sophomore Alexis Morsching (Morristown, Minn.) had a team-high 10 kills and finished with a double double with 13 digs. Sophomore Cheyenne Owens (Truman, Minn.) tallied 16 assists and added 12 digs.

The Vikings held the team advantage in blocks.
