Lady Chaps Storm Into First-Ever LSC Final With Dominant Sweep of Texas Woman’s

LCU Advances to Program’s First Lone Star Conference Championship Final After Balanced 3–0 Win

SAN ANGELO, Texas (November 21, 2025) – Lubbock Christian University punched its ticket to the Lone Star Conference Championship title match for the first time in program history Friday, sweeping Texas Woman's 3–0 (25–18, 25–16, 25–18) inside the Junell Center. The win—LCU's 25th of the season and its most since 2010—moved the Lady Chaps to 25–6 overall and 5–1 in neutral-site contests, while extending a dominant postseason run.
 
LCU once again rode a balanced, efficient attack, placing four hitters at nine-plus points. Freshman standout Emilee Sikora led all players with 12 kills on 41 swings (.220), her 21st double-figure performance of the season. Senior Payton Murray followed with 10 kills—her second straight double-digit outing and 37th of her career—and middle blockers Lily Bickley and Jade Workman each contributed nine kills while hitting .421 and .364, respectively. Setter Camdyn Sears steered the offense with 34 assists and added 13 digs, producing her 21st double-double while climbing to 1,236 assists on the season—now the No. 2 single-season total in LCU's rally-scoring era (started in 2008).
 
Senior libero Abby Dominguez delivered another elite defensive performance, posting 23 digs to surpass 600 on the year. She became just the seventh Lady Chap in the rally-scoring era to record a 600-dig season, finishing with her 14th 20-plus dig performance of 2025. LCU produced 77 digs as a team—its most this season in a three-set match.
 
Texas Woman's (19-11 overall) wrapped the contest hitting .088. Tori Woods (10 kills) and Myracle Stockman (8 kills) led the Pioneers offensively, while libero Alyssa Rojo anchored the back row with a match-high 22 digs.

How It Happened
 
SET 1 | LCU 25, TWU 18
LCU jumped ahead early with a balanced, fast-paced offense, as Payton Murray delivered four quick kills and Lily Bickley added three more to establish control. A 7–1 run fueled by Kyla Farnan's serving and strong transition play created the first major cushion, as LCU built a 9-4 lead early. A 4-2 run with a pair of kills from Murray helped extend the lead to 14-9. Benedite Anuman had a kill to help TWU cut the deficit in the set to 16-15, but Farnan returned to the serving line, which was part of a 9-2 LCU surge for a 25-18 set win. Murray led LCU with four kills in the frame.
 
SET 2 | LCU 25, TWU 16
A pair of kills from Emilee Sikora sparked a 7-3 advantage to open the second set. Murray joined Sikora on an additional run, as each had a pair of kills in a 5-1 rally to extend the Lady Chaps lead to 13-7. TWU cut their deficit to 10-7 before LCU relied on Kyla Farnan and Ramsey Clark to serve through a 7-1 LCU run filled with kills from five different Lady Chaps for a 21-11 lead. Murray had a kill to seal the set 25-16. Sikora had six of her match-high 12 kills in the set.
 
SET 3 | LCU 25, TWU 18
Lubbock Christian capitalized on a series of attack errors by Texas Woman's to take a commanding lead early in the third set. Olivia Elofsson's serve was instrumental, as it led to multiple errors by the opposition, pushing the Lady Chaps ahead 7-1. Sikora contributed key kills, extending the advantage further. TWU attempted a comeback with Tori Woods recording consecutive kills to narrow the gap to 10-7. However, Lubbock Christian maintained their momentum, with Ramsey Clark delivering back-to-back service aces to make it 18-12. Workman sealed the set for the Chaps with a kill, concluding the set 25-18. Sikora (5) and Workman (4) combined for nine of LCU's 12 kills in the frame.
