The Wooden Shoes were led by Kelsey Deters with eight digs and 16 assists, Erica Michels with 11 kills and Lexie Niebrugge with five points.

"Really poor night for us," said T-town Coach Tim Mills. "The varsity had 27 unforced errors in two sets, which means we basically spotted them 13 points in each set. Combine that with a hitting percentage of .113 and you're not going to beat very many teams. Especially when Cumberland played with a lot of energy and their offense moved our defenders. Their setters did a nice job of varying their sets. They mixed in enough tips to keep our defenders guessing."

T-town dropped to 17-15.

Cumberland also nabbed the junior varsity match, 25-19, 25-18.
