Men’s volleyball heads to Georgia for pair of matches against Mid-South foes

CAMPBELLSVILLE, Ky. – After a successful 2-1 showing at their home tournament last weekend, CU men's volleyball will hit the road for two matches in two days as they face Life University on Friday and St. Andrews on Saturday.
 
The Tigers are now at an even .500 winning percentage this season at 5-5 after their three home games that were part of the Campbellsville University Invitational.
 
CU players Jason Camacho and Jeremy Hernandez each came away with a pair of awards from their last week of competition. Camacho and Hernandez were each honored by the Mid-South Conference as the Attacker and Setter of the Week respectively as Camacho also earned NCCAA Student-Athlete of the Week and Hernandez also earned NAIA Setter of the Week.
 
The match against the Running Eagles will be at 3 p.m. ET on Friday in the Upper Gym in Marietta, Ga. as Life's first match of the day before they play Midway later. LU is 4-1 so far on the season with two wins each against Erskine College and Emmanuel College as their loss came against North Greenville University.
 
So far this season, Livan Moreno is the leader in kills for Life with 80 to this point and a .309 hitting percentage. Allain Larroche is their primary setter with 208 of the team's 237 assists in their five matches.
 
The Tigers will face the Knights of St. Andrews for the second time in a week after CU upset the then No. 10 SAU last Saturday in Gosser Gymnasium.
 
Sophomore Diego Hernandez was their leader in kills on the season with 66 and led the Knights with 17 kills in the previous match. Setter Jackson Stark has 195 assists in their seven matches played with 29 against CU last Saturday.
 
Campbellsville will return home after this weekend for one home match as they will play host to Midway University next Tuesday in a Mid-South Conference match-up at Gosser Gymnasium.
