SPRINGFIELD, Mo. -Â The Southeast Missouri volleyball team (13-13) fell to in-state rival Missouri State (15-9) Tuesday evening in three sets (19-25, 12-25, 24-26).
Â
"We did a great job passing tonight which helped us in the first and third sets," said Julie Yankus. "We ran a fairly effective offense during those sets but we couldn't stop a very strong Missouri State offense."
Â
Missouri State took set one 25-19 but not without a fight from the Redhawks as the score was tied eight times in the opening stanza. The Bears opened up nice lead on a 9-1 run to go up 19-12. The Bears were able to cruise to the opening set win.
Â
The Bears shut down the Redhawks in the second set, 25-12.

Looking a sweep in the eyes, Southeast put up a good fight in the third set to try to stay alive in the match but Missouri State got the best of the Redhawks, 26-24, to earn the three-set sweep. Down 23-19, Southeast used a 5-1 run to tie up the set at 24 apiece but the Bears tallied the final two points before the Redhawks could gain too much momentum.
Â
Colleen Yarber led the Redhawks with 14 kills and a .250 hitting clip. Madalyn Werths recorded five kills with a season-high .300 hitting percentage. The OVC leaders in blocking were out-blocked 6-5 to the Bears.
