But we know their style of play pretty well at this point, so it was really just communicating that to our team on Saturday.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Coach Fear spends time preparing her players for each opponent they face. Junior middle blocker Jacey Lambert said the team prepared and had a plan for their game against Oklahoma Baptist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIn our practice, we definitely go over a plan for the game,\u201d Lambert said. \u201cWe watch film, we scout them, we take notes; our coaches do a really good job of putting together stuff for us to go over.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lambert said her favorite play against Oklahoma Baptist was a point scored by sophomore setter Olivia Wiedower.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cShe dumped the ball and won the fifth set for us,\u201d Lambert said. \u201cI think that was the play that everybody was pretty excited about, which was pretty cool.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Junior outside hitter Maegan Lacy said they outlasted their last opponent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cSome things that ultimately won us the game was us never letting up,\u201d Lacy said. \u201cWhen they got a kill or went on a run we went right back at them and outlasted them in the end. We can always improve on controlling the emotional rollercoaster that comes with the long-fought games. Controlling the waves of energy is a huge factor when it comes to winning games.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Lady Bisons will travel to Arkadelphia on Monday, Nov. 4 to take on Ouachita Baptist University. The first serve is set for 6 p.m.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Andrew Reneau\/ Photo by Abigail Callicoat The Harding University volleyball team ended their game against Oklahoma Baptist University Oct. 25 with a 3-2 victory, bringing their season record to&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":15086,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":true,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[23],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-20042","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/thelink.harding.edu\/the-bison\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20042","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/thelink.harding.edu\/the-bison\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/thelink.harding.edu\/the-bison\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thelink.harding.edu\/the-bison\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/15086"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thelink.harding.edu\/the-bison\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=20042"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/thelink.harding.edu\/the-bison\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20042\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":20056,"href":"https:\/\/thelink.harding.edu\/the-bison\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20042\/revisions\/20056"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/thelink.harding.edu\/the-bison\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=20042"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thelink.harding.edu\/the-bison\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=20042"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thelink.harding.edu\/the-bison\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=20042"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
