After a two-loss weekend, the Northwestern volleyball team won three games in a row before losing to Oklahoma Christian on Tuesday.


The Lady Rangers traveled to Lawton Sept. 27 to take on the Aggies of Cameron, and to bounce back after losses to Southwestern and Oklahoma Baptist. Northwestern was in control most of the game, as the Lady Rangers won all three sets to get their sixth 3-0 victory of the season.

On Thursday, the Lady Rangers returned to Percefull Fieldhouse for the first game of a three-game homestand.


Their opponent was Southern Arkansas, which only had three wins on the season. The Lady Rangers found themselves in a 0-2 hole, but won the final three sets of the game to get a 3-2 win.


The next day, Arkansas-Monticello came to town, and the Boll Weevils had a result like Cameron. The Lady Rangers won two tight sets by scores of 25-23 before winning the final set 25-18 to get another 3-0 victory.


The winning streak lasted until Tuesday, when the Lady Rangers hosted Oklahoma Christian. The Eagles bludgeoned the Lady Rangers early, as they won the first set 25-11.


Northwestern responded by winning the next set 25-16, but it was the last set the Lady Rangers won. Oklahoma Christian won the next two sets and the match, 3-1.
