Welke Slams Career-High 13 Kills in Loss to Pride

HAMMOND, Ind.. - Abby Welke racked up a career-high 13 kills as the Davenport University women's volleyball team fell 3-1 Friday evening to Purdue Northwest at the H.D. Kesling Gymnasium. The junior has now recorded double-digit kills in the previous three matches, notching a previous career-high 12 kills vs. Northern Michigan (Oct. 28) and Grand Valley State (Oct. 31).

The Panthers (11-15, 7-8 GLIAC) fell to the Pride (12-14, 7-8 GLIAC) in the first two sets by scores of 25-21 and 25-20. 

Davenport bounced back in set three, starting with a 3-0 lead following a pair of kills by Emmy Webb. The Panthers went on a 5-0 run shortly after, which was capped by a kill from Welke, and DU took a 10-7 lead. After falling behind by one point (18-17), the Panthers went on a 4-2 rally sparked by a kill from Emma Turnquist. Webb accounted for two of the final three DU points, slamming a pair of kills late, taking down PNW 25-22 but still trailing 2-1 in the match.

Despite a strong showing in the third set, Davenport could not complete the comeback, falling 25-12 in the fourth set.

Webb finished with 12 kills while hitting .333 in the loss for the Panthers. Lindsay Taylor chipped in with her 13th double-double of the season, ending the night with 10 kills and 11 digs. Nicole Odeen added a match-high 26 assists. 

Defensively for Davenport, Stephanie Kalinowski tallied a team-high 12 digs.
