NASHVILLE, Tenn.-- Belmont returns home to the friendly confines
of the Curb Event Center after a four match road swing to face
Chattanooga at 7 p.m. on Tuesday.
The Bruins ended the Nevada Invitational 1-2 after beating Weber
State in the tournament's final match 3-2 on Saturday. Belmont
comes into Tuesday's match-up at 3-4 and 2-1 at home. The Bruins
are led by senior Kayla
Albritton, who turned in three 15-plus-kill matches over the
weekend en route to being named to the All-Tournament
team. For the weekend, Albritton averaged 17 kills per match
and nearly four kills per set. In the Nevada Invitational,
Albritton turned in .399 hitting percentage and accumulated two
service aces, 13 digs, and 12 blocks. She leads Belmont in hitting
percentage (.351) and service aces (11) and is a co-leader in kills
(97).
Belmont is 4-2 all-time against Chattanooga, but the Bruins have
won the last four straight, including the only two meetings in the
Curb Event Center.
The meeting with the Lady Mocs is the lone home-match in a
four-game week. The Bruins will travel to West Lafeyette, Ind., to
particpate in the Active Ankle Challenge hosted by Purdue
University. The tournament takes place Sept. 10-11.
