WINONA LAKE, Ind. - The sensational streak for Grace's volleyball team continued on Saturday.

Grace pulled to within two on two occasions, eventually pulling even at 23-23. A pair of USF timeouts could not slow Grace's surge. A timely ace from Liz Schmidt put Grace on top, and Anna Ballengee finished off the set (27-25) with a kill on the final point.

Alisha Leffring charged Grace's attack in the set with five kills on eight swings.

Grace was dominant to begin the second set. USF had to burn both of its timeouts early as Grace rolled in front 15-7.

The Cougars did their best to keep pace, gradually eating away at Grace's lead. USF pulled to within three at 23-20, but two USF miscues on the next two plays gave Grace the 25-20 victory.

The Lancers wasted little time taking the lead in the third set. Back-to-back kills from Leffring put Grace ahead 13-7.
