In Tuesday’s match, Tindall Ahrens had a big night and finished with 20 kills, while Emily Hill added 8 kills. Comfort had a good night serving and dropped in 15 aces. Alyssa Angel recorded 5 aces and Emily Hill had 4 aces.

Alexa Lozano and Anahi Martinez both came up with 7 digs and Mallie Knight added 6 digs, while Knight tallied 14 assists and Savana Womble chipped in with a dozen assists.

Comfort went 3-3 at the Johnson City tournament last weekend. They dropped their first three matches on Friday but won the next three on Saturday.
