Ottumwa -- The Indian Hills Warriors were only six points away from a possible straight-sets victory over DMACC at the Net Center on Thursday night. But that's when IHCC sophomore Kelsey Wagner suffered a sprained ankle, an injury that appeared to turn the match around.
Even after Wagner's injury, the Warriors still served a match point in the third set, but the Bears won that point and the next two to extend the match, winning 26-24.
Indian Hills had taken the first two sets, 25-23 and 25-19. After a close decision in the first set, IHCC opened up a 10-point lead in the second set and Carly Wehling ended it with one of her team-high 13 kills.
After staving off defeat in set three, DMACC rolled in the fourth set, 25-11, and took the match with a 15-8 win in the fifth set.
It was the second five-set loss in three nights for the Warriors who had lost to East Central (MO) on Tuesday.
Jessi Black led the Warriors with 15 digs and Wagner had five blocks before her injury. Kelsey Lyon and Wehling each had five ace serves for Indian Hills, now 13-11 for the season.
The Warriors travel to Council Bluffs to face Iowa Western next Tuesday night.
