GOODWELL, Okla. – The Oklahoma Panhandle State University never quite seemed to get on track on Saturday afternoon, losing a 3-0 Sooner Athletic Conference decision to Texas Wesleyan University. The Aggies (6-9, 3-5 SAC) fell to the visiting Rams (10-6, 6-2 SAC) by scores of 19-25, 9-25, 9-25) at Anchor D Arena at Oscar Williams Field House.
 
Freshman Sydnee Saunders led the team in kills (6), digs (11) and both aces by OPSU. Teammate Skylar Cleavinger added five kills in the loss.
 
Kendra Butler had three blocks, two solo. Ruth Ard added two blocks.
 
Sophomore Libero Ashley Sanchez matched Saunders for the lead in digs with 11 of her own. Richelle Carroll and Keeley Johnston chipped in eight and six digs, respectively. Johnston also had eight assists.
 
TWU hit .223 for the match and landed 35 kills and four aces, as well as four team blocks.
 
Panhandle State will next be in action on Friday, October 4 (7 p.m.) at SAC leader – and NAIA No. 24 ranked – Oklahoma City University in OKC.
