Interview with Coach Doug Frazell
The Knights opened the match on four straight points and had an 8-2 run in the set which it claimed, 25-19.
In the second set, the Orange and Black were down 19-9, but went on a 10-point run and eventually won the frame, 25-23.
Wartburg won the third set to seal the sweep, 25-18.
Fittingly on senior night, Bailey Wilson (West Des Moines) led the team with eight kills and junior Libby Creery (West Union) followed closely with seven. Creery's kill total was one shy of her career mark.
Classmate Emma Harmeyer (West Union) and freshman Maria Brown (Peosta) recorded 19 and 15 set assists, respectively as they co-ran the team's offense.
Junior Jamie Farley (Cedar Falls) had a match-high 24 digs and senior Karly Bown (Lincoln, Neb.) joined her in double digits with 10. Bown led the team at the service line with two aces and needs 34 to become the program's all-time leader.
The Knights return to the court Friday when they compete in UW-Oshkosh's Invitational.
