Clawson defeated host Lamphere in straight sets (25-18, 25-5, 25-7) on Thursday to stay unbeaten in conference play. 

Charlie Verner led the Trojans with 16 kills and five digs, and Aliyah Vesper had six kills and six digs. 

Renata Carlesimo had 19 assists, and Anna Smith had seven assists. Natty Lertkasem had nine digs and three aces, and Ashley Hildebrant had seven aces.

Hannah Saunders had four kills and three blocks, Gloria Lock had three kills, and Libby Myren had one kill.

The first set saw a lot of back-and-forth play, with Lamphere leading early on. The turning point, however, came after a perfect pass on serve receive from Hildebrant and a quick kill from Verner, putting Clawson within one point at 15-14. The Trojans then finished the first set on a 12-3 run, and that momentum carried forward.

Clawson refused to allow any more back-and-forth play, and in the second set Hildebrant served 16 straight points, which included five aces, to build a giant lead for the Trojans. A combined strategy of aggressive serves and running strong plays off of freeballs helped Clawson hold Lamphere to only 12 total points in the final two sets.

Clawson improved to 14-4 overall, and remains undefeated halfway through conference play at 5-0 in the MAC Silver.
