It may have been Friday the 13th, but the Lady Saints volleyball team didn’t let their demons get the best of them.
The Lady Saints took the court with a cloud hanging over their head – a four game losing streak that stretched over two weeks. The last two of those losses came exactly a week prior in Savannah and the time off gave Flagler plenty of time to think about their mistakes.

On a picture perfect October evening, with the air crisp and clear, the Flagler College Lady Saints soccer squad lost to NAIA No. 1 Lindsey Wilson College at Flagler Field.
The seemingly undaunted Lady Saints came out strong in the first half against the Blue Raiders, led by freshman defensemen Samantha Warr and sophomore midfielder Caitlin Eggimann. The Lady Saints took a number of shots at Blue Raiders goaltender Lisbeth Skjodt, but could not put the ball in the back of the net. Despite that inability to score, Coach Teddy Meyer was very impressed with his young team.
