    Lawrence won 24-26, 29-27, 25-18, 25-27, 16-14 at the Ratner Center at the University of Chicago.
    Margaret Hahnke pounded out a match-high 24 kills for the Vikings (6-1), and she added 15 digs and four service aces. Rookie Audrey Weier added 13 kills, three blocks and three digs for Lawrence. Hazel Cook picked up nine kills and Chania Tinch had eight for the Vikings.
