  Peru Sr. Aubrey Dutlinger has been an offensive threat, no matter where
• 0:25
  she is on the volleyball court. On Tuesday against Ottawa, Dutlinger was
• 0:30
  equally effective in the front row and the back row with six
• 0:33
  kills from each spot. My goal is always to try to be
• 0:37
  an option, Dutlinger said. I think tonight the block was there for
• 0:41
  the outside. They had some good blockers. I think that we where
• 0:45
  able to pull them with some back row attacks, and I think
• 0:48
  that's what was working. If it's working, we weren't stopping. Dutlinger said
• 0:52
  timing is the big key with a back row attack. It's easy
• 0:56
  when you can jump high and you can see where the blocks
• 1:00
  at because you usually don't have more than one blocker, Duttlinger said.
• 1:04
  So it's just knowing where the spots are on the court that
• 1:07
  are open. Behind Dutlinger's strong attacks, along with solid defense and aggressive
• 1:13
  serving, the Cavaliers the Pirates twenty five sixteen twenty five sixteen in
• 1:18
  an Interstate Eight Conference match in La Salle. I think we played
• 1:22
  very well, Duttlinger said. Last week we lost our first conference match
• 1:26
  to Sycamore, so we've been working really hard in practice. We've been
• 1:30
  really trying to get into the details. I think tonight we played
• 1:34
  with excitement. We were ready to play again. It's been a while.
• 1:38
  The first set was tight early until the Cavs took control with
• 1:41
  a seven-point serving run by Addie Dawson that gave LP a 16-8
• 1:46
  lead. The run included an ace that floated over and sank to
• 1:50
  the floor just in front of a defender, along with three Ottawa
• 1:53
  errors and kills by Dutlinger and Maggie Boudreaux. The Cavs pushed their
• 1:58
  lead to as many as 23-11 before Ottawa made a late run.
• 2:02
  Duttlinger ended the set with a kill.
• 2:05
  Our serving was just outstanding, LP coach Mark Habercorn said. Our serving
• 2:10
  played a big role in our success tonight. We got on a
• 2:12
  roll with some aces and we had nice runs. The second set
• 2:16
  played out in similar fashion, as Dutlinger served seven straight points, including
• 2:21
  three aces, to give LP a 13-5 lead. Mackenzie Chamberlain later served
• 2:26
  four points, in a row to extend the lead to 18 7.
• 2:30
  Dutlinger ended the match with a kill. We knew today was going
• 2:34
  to be a little bit rough coming into it, Ottawa coach Christina
• 2:37
  Correy said. We had a lineup change unexpectedly. Our Libero Meredith Waldron
• 2:44
  wasn't available to play, so we had one day to kind of
• 2:46
  regroup ourselves. We came in thinking we just do the best we
• 2:49
  can with the circumstances, and that's what we did. Along with her
• 2:53
  12 kills, Dutlinger had 12 points, 5 aces and 12 digs. Aubrey
• 2:58
  Orbanski had 14 assists, 9 points, 2 aces, 6 kills, and 6
• 3:02
  digs for LP. 1631188. Boudreaux had 7 points, 5 kills on 6
• 3:07
  swings and 5 digs. Chamberlain had 9 points and 7 digs, and
• 3:11
  Dawson contributed 9 points and 6 digs. I thought we were really
• 3:16
  sharp on defense, Habercorn said. We were quick. Ottawa likes to tip
• 3:21
  a little bit more, and I thought we did a great job
• 3:23
  of defending the tip. It was a great team effort. It seemed
• 3:26
  like everybody was moving together on the defensive end. We played pretty
• 3:31
  clean on offense, but I think our serving and defense were the
• 3:34
  two things that were very efficient. Bella Knowle led the Pats October
• 3:39
  10, 02 with 10 kills. Corey said she felt Ottawa did a
• 3:43
  better job against Dutlinger in the second set. We know she's their
• 3:47
  big player we have to be prepared for, and I think we
• 3:50
  were just way too hesitant in set one, Corey said. In set
• 3:54
  two we went in knowing that's going to happen and holding ourselves
• 3:57
  to a higher standard of actually stopping that. I think we did
• 4:01
  a nice job adjusting to that in set two, but a lot
• 4:04
  of hesitancy on our end held us back there.
