Fort Dodge, IA -- The Indian Hills volleyball team broke a two-match losing streak on Tuesday night with a 3-0 win over Iowa Central CC. The Warriors were playing for the first time in 11 days and came out of the blocks firing on all cylinders, taking the first set, 25-9. The next two sets were much closer, but the Warriors prevailed, 27-25 and 25-18.
IHCC coach Terry Carlson was pleased the way his team performed after the lengthy break. "The first game was probably the best set we've had all season," said Carlson. "We really ran the offense well and had good passing. In the second set, our passing broke down and we were not as efficient. In the third set we played well again."
Patrice Souza led the Warriors in kills with 10, one more than Wynter Davis and two more than Tahler Johnston. Taylor Woebbeking had 29 assists from the setter position. Davis led in blocks with four and Timmi Lueck had 16 digs and Lizzy White had 14.
Indian Hills is right back in action on Wednesday night when the Warriors host Kirkwood CC at the Tom Arnold Net Center at 7:00.

Warriors Get Revenge, Down SCC in Five
Ottumwa --- The Indian Hills volleyball team didn't have to wait long to avenge their only loss early in the 2009 season. The Warriors got their measure of revenge on Tuesday night, winning a tense five-set match with Southeastern CC in the home-opener at the Net Center.
SCC had knocked off Indian Hills in another five-setter last weekend in the finals of the BlackHawks' tournament.
This time around, the Warriors jumped on top 5-1 early in the fifth and deciding set and never trailed in winning the set 15-11.
IHCC started slowly in dropping the opening set, 25-19. IHCC led early, 11-9, before Southeastern rallied. But the Warriors recovered to win the next two sets, 25-22 and 25-20. The serving of Kersten Phillips and strong net play from Tahler Johnston, Patrice Souza and Wynter Davis were the keys in getting Indian Hills untracked. Johnston's kill ended the third set after a Timmi Lueck ace serve put the Warriors ahead 23-20.
But Southeastern refused to go quietly as the visitors battled back to win the fourth set, 25-21.
The Warriors then regrouped in time to take the fifth set and gain some payback for their loss last Saturday. Phillips had her fifth ace serve of the night in the final set, one of nine aces the Warriors recorded during the match.
Johnston led IHCC with 12 kills and she and Lueck tied for the team high with 16 digs apiece. Setter Taylor Woebbeking had 50 assists and Davis led in blocks with six.
Indian Hills, now 4-1 on the season, will host Ellsworth CC at the Net Center at 7:00 on Thursday night.
