In their last match, the Lady Patriots got a convincing home win against Southern Nazarene where they won in three sets. It was a balanced match for DBU with four players reaching at least seven kills and three players reaching at least 15 digs. This was also a match that saw the Lady Patriots score points in bunches. A big point in the match came in the 2nd set where the Lady Patriots scored 10 points in a row to easily win the 2nd set. From there, the Lady Patriots had success in their offensive attack to help them get the win.

SENIOR NIGHT
With tomorrow's match being the final home match of the regular season for the Lady Patriots, they will take time to honor the seniors on the team before the match starts. With this team being so young they only have one senior, team captain Sidnee Jo Fitzpatrick, that they will honor tomorrow. Sidnee Jo Fitzpatrick has had a great career during her time at DBU and she's made an impact from day one.

With a few matches left in the year, Sidnee Jo has 783 kills and 275 blocks. In her senior and junior year she has led her team in both kills and blocks, and she made the top 5 in kills and blocks in her sophomore and freshman year. She's been a consistently great player for this team and next year's team will surely miss her talent and leadership.
