GRAMBLING, La. – Texas Southern (6-7, 2-0 SWAC) downed Grambling State (1-4, 1-1 SWAC) Saturday afternoon to push its win streak to four games.
The Lady Tigers were able to pick up the first two sets without a significant challenge, as Texas Southern jumped out to a 10-2 lead in a first set where the visiting Lady Tigers led by no less than five from that point. In set two, TSU netted 12 of the first 16 points of the frame, controlling the game from there.
Grambling responded in set three, building an 11-6 lead early on and not allowing TSU to get any closer than three the rest of the way. In the fourth and deciding set, however, both sides traded momentum until Texas Southern posted a 10-1 run that wiped out a 13-12 Grambling State advantage.
Kali Fluke posted 19 kills to lead Texas Southern along with five blocks.
