“The girls played well tonight all though we had a mishap in the first set,” said Head Coach Penny Lucas-White.  “After the first set we were able to pull ourselves together and get the win.”
 
Alabama State was led by four-time newcomer of the week Maya Bell with a match-high 20 kills.  Senior Ana Pego handed out 36 assists in the match, while freshman Erika Thompson had eight kills and Asia Manning had seven to assist in the win over Alcorn State.
