CAPE GIRARDEAU, Mo. – Missouri-Kansas City used a late first set rally to fuel a 3-0 (26-24, 25-15, 25-14) win over Southeast Missouri Saturday, the final day of the Drury Hotels Redhawks Invitational.
Southeast had a 23-18 lead in the opening set, but couldn't close it out. Missouri-Kansas City erased the deficit with an 8-1 run to edge the Redhawks, 26-24.
That boost was all the Roos needed.
Missouri-Kansas City took control with a 10-5 lead early in the second set and went on to win 25-15. The Roos, who were ahead by one (11-10) in the final set, mounted a six-point surge to polish off their sweep with a 25-14 victory.
Clarke led Southeast with 12 kills and a .632 attack percentage. She played strong from the get-go, recording five kills and a .714 hitting percentage in the first set alone. Clarke finished the tournament, hitting .267 with an average of 1.10 blocks per set. She was named to the All-Tournament Team for her efforts.
Afterwards, Redhawks coach Julie Yankus commented on the tournament. "We were happy to host for the first weekend and our staff did a great job of running the tournament. We had some great home crowds to play in front of and we appreciate all of the support. It was a very competitive weekend and we definitely got better by playing some highly competitive teams."
Southeast heads to the Gardner-Webb Tournament on Sept. 4-5.
