\n \u00a0Texas A&M – Kingsville
\n <\/p>\n
History <\/a><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n LUBBOCK, Texas\u00a0(October 16, 2026)\u00a0\u2013 Camdyn Sears<\/a> recorded Lubbock Christian University’s first triple-double in 36 years Friday, leading the Lady Chaparrals to a 3-0 (25-22, 25-12, 25-14) sweep of Texas A&M International in Lone Star Conference play inside Rip Griffin Center.
\n\u00a0
\nSears finished with 15 digs, 13 assists and a career-high 11 kills for the first triple-double of her career and LCU’s first since Marla Lowery posted one against Houston Christian on Oct. 5, 1990. Sears hit .526 and also added a service ace and a block.
\n\u00a0
\nThe victory snapped LCU’s three-match losing streak and improved the Lady Chaparrals to 9-11 overall and 5-5 in LSC play. Texas A&M International fell to 7-14 and 1-9.
\n\u00a0
\nFreshman Shaylee Stevens<\/a> continued her recent surge with a career-high nine kills on 11 attacks, hitting .818 without an error. Hope Gonsioroski<\/a> added eight kills, while Lauren Hanson<\/a> finished with 14 assists (career-high) as LCU utilized a 5-2 offense.
\n\u00a0
\nThe Lady Chaps recorded 10 service aces, led by three from Ramsey Clark<\/a> and two apiece from Leigh Jespersen<\/a> and Kyla Farnan<\/a>.
\n\u00a0
\nAfter a tight opening set, LCU took control by closing the second on an 11-2 run before hitting .414 in the third.
\n\u00a0
\nEce Ozdemir led the Dustdevils with 10 kills, eight digs and two aces.
\n\u00a0
\nGame Notes
\n\u00bb\u00a0Camdyn Sears<\/a> not only recorded her 10th double-double this season (and 33rd of her career), but her 15 digs, 13 assists and 11 kills (career high and first career double-figure kill performance) led to her first career triple-double and the program’s first triple-double since Marla Lowery had 27 digs, 13 kills and 10 blocks against Houston Christian (then Houston Baptist) on Oct. 5, 1990 (during side-out scoring era). Sears also had a block and a serving ace in the match.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00bb\u00a0Running a 5-2 led to Sears’ historic outing, and it also led to Lauren Hanson<\/a> leading the team in digs for the first time in the freshman’s career, as she had 14.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00bb\u00a0For a third time this season, the Lady Chaps had at least 10 serving aces in a three-set match, as they had 10 Friday night. Six different Lady Chaps had success at the serving line, including three by Ramsey Clark<\/a>. Leigh Jespersen<\/a> and Kyla Farnan<\/a> each had a pair of aces for a second consecutive match with at least two aces. Jespersen achieves multiple aces in consecutive matches for a second time this season (completed the task in the opening two matches of the season), while Farnan has five in the two-game span for her first stretch of consecutive multi-ace matches this season.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00bb\u00a0Freshman Shaylee Stevens<\/a>, who entered Saturday’s match against UT Dallas (their previous match) with eight kills on the season, now has 17 kills in her last two matches, as she followed her eight-kill performance against UT Dallas with a season\/career high nine-kill performance against TAMIU. She produced her nine kills on 11 attacks for a .818 attack percentage, which is the best single-match mark, between 10-14 attacks, in the Lone Star Conference this season (ranks tied for the 16th best percentage nationally in NCAA Div. II play this season).
\n\u00a0
\n\u00bb\u00a0LCU improved to 7-8 in straight-set decisions, as 15 of LCU’s 20 matches this season have resulted in 3-0 decisions.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00bb\u00a0The Lady Chaps move to .500 at home for the season, as the win ended a three-game home skid and improves them to 3-3 in home matches this season.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00bb\u00a0LCU increases their all-time series advantage over Texas A&M Int’l to 20-2 with Friday’s win, which also improves LCU to 10-0 at home against the Dustdevils. Of LCU’s 20 wins against TAMIU, 13 have now come in straight sets.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0
