Michaela Franklin knew when she schedule Kennesaw State that it was going to be a tough match for her young team. She was right.
With six starters and 12 lettermen back from a team that went 18-11, and won the Atlantic Sun Conference a year ago, the Owls were a perfect test for Franklin to see where her team is at after four games.
What she found out … the Tigers still have some work to do as Kennesaw State swept them in three sets (25-21, 25-16 and 25-11) Tuesday night at Jervey Gymnasium in Clemson.
“That’s a team that is going to be battling to go to the NCAA tournament and that’s why we scheduled them,” Franklin said.
