Three Rust College Lady Bearcats Use Monster Doulble-Doubles To Power Past Pioneers
|
Posted By: Reginald Culpepper on October 24, 2022 The Rust College volleyball program got huge efforts from the trio of Jelisa Alexander, Jasmine Coleman, and Deja Campbell to send the Lady Bearcats soaring past Crowley’s Ridge, 3-1. Coleman had one of the best nights of her life for Head Coach Zuzana Armstrong, notching a ridiculous 21 kills and 12 digs for a double-double while also leading Rust in service aces with three. Campbell put in most of her work on the defensive end per usual with 17 digs but also made a positive impact offensively with 12 kills as well, tying with Coleman for the aces high at three. Jelisa Alexander was the third student-athlete donning the Blue and White to have a double-double, setting up a game-best 39 assists and a team-high 19 digs, on top of two kills plus an ace. Michelene Coleman was a force at the net in both facets of the term, slamming down 11 kills and a match-high six blocks while fronting Rust College in both service aces (3) and hitting percentage (.240). Zanayah Myers was one of four Lady Bearcats with double figure dig totals, recording 11 as RC racked up a mind-blowing 83 overall over four sets.
