CBC Vollyball team beats Williams Baptist for second AMC win
Walnut Ridge, Ark. – Coming off a non-conference win on Tuesday night, Central Baptist College volleyball returned to American Midwest Conference play this afternoon with a trip to Williams Baptist College to take on the Eagles. CBC (6-5, 2-1 AMC) lost the first set, but rallied back, taking the match from WBU (2-1, 1-1 AMC) 3-1 by scores of 20-25, 25-12, 25-20 and 25-19.
Lena Sradanov had 20 kills and 12 digs for her 12th career double-double and her second career match with 20-or-more kills. Emoree Martin also had a double-double, the third of her career, with 11 kills and 13 digs while Khyra Echols had 10 kills. Taylor Folsom and Molly Murphy both finished in double figures in assists, with Folsom earning 26 and Murphy getting 15 while Alizea Garza led four Mustangs in double figures in digs with 19. CBC had 50 kills and hit .164 in the match with 12 service aces while WBU had 43 kills and hit .109 with three aces.
WBU led wire-to-wire in set one, racing out to a 4-1 lead with CBC unable to get closer than two at any point in the set. CBC never trailed in set two, racing out to a 9-3 lead before cruising to the set win to tie the match.
A kill from Srdanov gave CBC the first point of set three, and the teams would trade points until a WBU error gave CBC a 4-3 lead and they would lead from there winning the set by five. The deciding set featured four ties and four lead changes with CBC gaining the lead for good when Srdanov killed to make it 13-12. Williams would get no closer and the Mustangs closed out their sixth victory of the season.

Women’s soccer team beats Trojans
Hannibal, Mo. – Opening their American Midwest Conference schedule Oct. 3 on the road, Central Baptist College women’s soccer took on the Trojans of Hannibal-LaGrange. CBC (2-3, 1-0 AMC) got a goal in the first half and held on to beat HLGU (0-3, 0-2 AMC) 1-0.
Cayla Lee scored the only goal of the contest in the 31st minute, her second career goal as a Mustang. Jayme Selph had nine saves in her first career shutout. CBC was outshot in the contest 9-3 on goal, but were able to hold possession for much of the second half and preserve the win.
Lee’s goal came on a rebound off a goalkeeper’s save. Kelsie Moore had a free kick from outside the box and the HLGU keeper saved the ball off the crossbar and it fell at the feet of Lee, who kicked it in to put CBC up. CBC only had one opportunity to extend the lead in the second half, but it was saved.
