BUIES CREEK, NC - The Winston-Salem State University Lady Rams volleyball team dropped their season opener on Tuesday evening as they fell in defeat to the Campbell University Camels at Carter Gym by the score of 3-0 (30-18, 30-15, 30-12) as they began play in the 2007 season.
WSSU jumped out of the starting gate hot as they evenly competed with the Camels for the entirety of the first game, ultimately falling in defeat 30-18 in a game in which they registered a match-high .267 attack percentage.
However, the Camels, playing in front of a home crowd of 183 people, responded in the second game of the match with an offensive showcase as they recorded 13 kills and committed only three errors en route to an attack percentage of .500.
The third game saw the Lady Rams commit seven attack errors and earn five kills as a negative attack percentage (-.105) proved too difficult to overcome as the Camels secured the 3-0 match victory with a 30-12 victory in the third, and final, game of the contest.
