"We didn't play consistently, " said Hardrocker head coach Doug Tabbert. "We are still pretty young and people are still learning to play new positions. They need to figure out what it takes to win." In the Valley City match, Mines won the first match but then let two tight ones get away followed by a tough loss in the final set to lose the match. Individually, Stephanie Carpio (Yuma, Colo.) put for a good effort, going 31-40 on the attack with six kills and made good on 18-18 serves with one ace. Rapid City native Jennie Malone had eight kills and was 23-30 on the attack and had a solo block and four assisted blocks as well. Aga Koperek, of Belchatow, Poland, had a great defensive game, coming up with 17 digs and was 40-42 on serve receive and Jenny Hiykel, of Omaha, Neb., had 38 assists in the game. As a team, the Hardrockers tallied 76 digs, was 100-102 on the serve receive, was 92-96 on the serve with seven aces and went 108-154 on the attack and collected 25 kills. "We had phases of good this (past) weekend and phases of bad where we had too many mistakes, " Tabbert said. "We were competitive in spurts." In the Mayville match, the Hardrockers again got out to a quick start winning the first game. The visitors dropped the second set but picked up a Game 3 win. SDM fell in the fourth game to knot the match and then lost the final frame in a very competitive bout. "We need to find more balance with our attack and find some consistence individually, " Tabbert added. Carpio had another strong showing against the Comets, going 24-25 on the serve and made good on 13 of 27 attacks with six kills. Koperek also shined going 18-20 on the serve with two aces and was 24-31 on the attack with seven kills and was 41-45 on serve receive. Katherine Hanson (Sioux Falls) also had a good match converting 21-32 attacks with five kills and came up with a 20-20 effort on serve receive. Sturgis native Amanda Cammack was a factor at the net coming up with three solo blocks and two assisted while Malone had two assisted and one solo. Hiykel led in assists with 49. Team stats showed the Hardrockers going 102-111 on the serve, 86-145 on the attack with 29 kills, tallied 71 digs and was 114 of 123 on serve receive. South Dakota Mines are back in conference play this weekend welcoming Dakota State Friday evening, followed by a match with Jamestown College on Saturday. "We need to win conference matches at home, " Tabbert said. The coach added that the Lady Trojans are struggling right now and the Jimmies don't play well on the road. He also felt that both games were winnable for his squad. The Hardrockers are currently 0-3 in the DAC and 7-4 overall.
