LOOKOUT MOUNTAIN -- The Covenant volleyball team rallied from a set down to take a one set advantage, but the Lady Scots could not hold off visiting Piedmont as the Lions took the final two sets for a 3-2 (25-22, 14-25, 19-25, 25-21, 15-13) victory on Wednesday night inside Barnes PE Center.

Schuyler Moore recorded her fourth triple-double of the year with 13 kills, 30 assists and 18 digs to lead Covenant (20-8, 9-3 USA South). Ginny Moore tied a season-high with 23 kills to go along with 24 digs in the losing effort.

Hannah Rogers recorded 12 kills, while Stephanie Kirkpatrick added 17 assists and nine digs. Christina Argaez and Chloe Carlson had 18 and 16 digs, respectively. Jessica Seehorn had five of Covenant's 10 service aces.

Covenant looked poised for its second comeback win of the year. The Lady Scots rebounded from a tough first set loss, that saw eight ties and five lead changes, with an easy second set victory followed by a third set win. Covenant scored the first 10 points of the second set and built a 12-1 lead as they cruised to the set win. In the third set, the Lady Scots opened up a 17-8 edge and held off a Piedmont rally as Rogers ended the set with a kill.

The Lady Scots had a comfortable lead in the fourth set at 14-7 before Piedmont rallied. The Lions tied the score at 17 apiece and ended the game on an 8-4 scoring run to send the match into a fifth set. 

Seven ties and four lead changes occurred in the fifth set, but it was Piedmont that made the final push. After Piedmont took a 12-10 lead in the set, Covenant responded with three straight kills from Ginny Moore, Maddie Wieskamp and Rogers to grab a 13-12 lead. A kill from Piedmont's Jennifer Opper followed by two Covenant errors gave the visiting Lions a five-set victory.

Piedmont (16-10, 8-4 USA South) received 18 kills and 15 digs from Taylor Cramsey. Libero Randee Harvel accounted for 25 digs and Xandy Green registered 19 assists.

Covenant will be back home on Saturday to host a USA South quad-match at Barnes PE Center. The Lady Scots face North Division leader Meredith at 10 a.m., and Methodist at 4 p.m. (or 30 minutes after the third match of the day ends).
