Scoring shifted back-and-forth, with neither team electing to take a timeout.

Meanwhile, right side Morghan Fingall was lethal for Tennessee. The six foot tall Monserez repeatedly showcased her abilities to handle tight passes, whether avoiding the block to set her hitter or attack the second ball. Set 1Ĭeasar took no time to get the Gators started, slamming a monster attack out of the back row for the first point of the match. These games are invaluable to the race for the SEC championship, as the Gators are one game behind leader, fifth ranked Kentucky, whom they play at the end of the month. Now that Florida has embarked on its final month of the season, they will next face Arkansas for two matches. When learning about Monserez’s advancement, Ceasar smiled and talked about what she means to the team, including a Love Language.

Speaking of the setter, senior Monserez moved to sixth in all-time assists for Florida with 3,327. Ĭeasar credited her team for controlling the first contact and digging balls…especially libero Elli McKissock and connecting between hitter and setter. Wise went on to speak about Ceasar showing up to practice early as the team focused on serving and passing over the week. “It was a special performance by a special player tonight<” Wise said. Wise emphasized the importance of Ceasar’s five aces and three blocks, too.

Even more so, the outside had a career-high 25 kills. Senior Ceasar broke the UF record for most points scored in a four-set match with 31.5. Afterward, head coach Mary Wise said the match had an NCAA Tournament feel to it due to the intensity and lead changes. The Gators beat the first ranked opponent they’ve played since September 11. T’ara Ceasar and Marlie Monserez from the 23rd ranked Gator volleyball team (15-6, 9-2 SEC) had a record night as they came back from losing the first set to defeat number 22 Tennessee (16-6, 8-4 SEC) in four sets (22-25, 25-17, 25-23, 25-16).
