October 20, 2009 Contact: Mike Wajerski, SID Unable to Stop Long Runs, Lake Forest Falls at Ripon
Lake Forest was led by freshman Cori Cooper's (Crystal Lake, Ill./Crystal Lake Central) seven kills, junior Deena Blanchard's (Sparta, Mich./Sparta) 17 assists, and freshman Megan Trubich's (Plainfield, Ill./Plainfield Central) 11 digs. A 9-0 Ripon run in the first set turned a 10-7 Lake Forest advantage into a 16-10 deficit from which the visitors never recovered. With a 16-11 lead in the second set, the Foresters appeared poised to tie the match at one set apiece. However, Ripon called a timeout and then embarked on a 14-3 run to take the set. The Red Hawks scored the first six points of the third set and gradually pulled away to close out the match. Lake Forest will continue league play Friday night (October 23) at 6:30 at Beloit College. The team will then host Grinnell College Saturday morning (October 24) at 10:00 and the match be followed by Grinnell versus Trinity International University at 1:00 p.m. The Foresters are then scheduled to take on Trinity International at 3:00.
