The #1 ranked Thunder volleyball team would travel to Belton, Missouri to take on the #5 ranked Calvary University Warriors on Tuesday night in a much anticipated Top-5 NCCAA matchup. With both team undefeated in Midwest Christian College Conference and NCCAA Central Region play, this match would give the winner sole possession of first place. The Thunder would sweep and defeat the Warriors to stand alone in first place (25-17, 25-22, 25-15). Senior, outside hitter, Liv Lubbers would have 17 kills on an efficient 0.316 attack percentage. Fellow senior, Jacey Schurle would have 12 kills to pace the Thunder. Jaiden Brewer and Ellie Suber would hold down the defense with 14 digs a piece, while Abby Blake would be close behind with 13 of her own. The Thunder have now moved to 14-1 overall, 5-0 in the MCCC, and 5-0 in the Central Region.

The Thunder will have another Central Region match on Thursday, October 2nd against Union Adventist at 7:00PM at Howie's Activity Center in Manhattan, Kansas. The Thunder swept Union Adventist on September 4th in Lincoln, Nebraska.
