Senior Lucy Kay hit the Tigers’ final two kills, totaling 18 for the night. Ellen Roberts put down 13 kills and also made seven digs. Izzy Bowman had 10 kills and five blocks, then Aubree Valcourt hit eight kills, with a 0.385 hitting percentage.
“I’m incredibly proud of our team for having the ‘clutch gene’ tonight,” said Fishers coach Steven Peek. “We found ways to win points when we needed to, especially when getting a chance to put on display some of the new things we’ve been working on in practice. Players stepped up to push us across the finish line.”
