Nicholls volleyball dropped a four-set Southland match at Lamar on Thursday, falling 3-1 (25-18, 17-25, 25-19, 26-24) in Beaumont.
Kera Arrington led the Colonels with 16 kills. Maya Schirmer hit .357 with five kills and 4.5 blocks, while setters Isabella Padilla and Jenna Cicherski combined for 32 assists and six service aces. Nicholls took the second set 25-17 but could not close out a tight fourth set that reached 24-24 before Lamar finished on Arrington’s attack error.
Lamar’s Maja Malinowska paced the Cardinals with 18 kills on .375 hitting. Nicholls hit .117 as a team to Lamar’s .240 and finishes the night at 9-17 overall, 2-11 in conference after an eighth straight loss.
The Colonels are back on the road Saturday at SFA before closing the regular season with a home-and-home against McNeese next week.
