In the team's final match of the season, the Lynx came back after dropping their opening set to Oglethorpe to defeat the Stormy Petrels in four sets.  

Seniors Maura Mohler and Kelsea Everett combined for 19 kills and 6 blocks in their final match.  Senior setter Laura Jensen had 36 assists while Senior Alex Nobel came in to make an appearance in her final match.  Nobel rehabbed extremely hard from an ACL tear earlier this season to make her way back onto the court for the Lynx.  

These four seniors have left their mark on the Rhodes Volleyball History books along with the SCAC record books.  They are also part of the only team in Rhodes Volleyball history to earn a birth to the NCAA tournament in 2006.
