Forester senior setter Lilly Robinson tallied a match-high 26 assists and served up a pair of aces while junior Meghan Winston and sophomore Margaret Almonte shared team-high honors in digs with nine.

CMS rattled off five straight points early in the opening set and won six in a row later on to extend its lead. Lake Forest fought off five consecutive set points before the home team finally closed it out.

The Athenas rattled off seven straight point early in set two but the Foresters responded with six in a row to close to within one. The score was close the rest of the way but Lake Forest was unable to pull even.

The Foresters led for the first half of set three but, trailing 14-12, CMS won 13 of the next 19 points to close out the match.

Lake Forest fell to 0-3 while CMS improved to 3-0.

The Foresters will host Carthage College and Aurora University next Saturday.
