we lacked against Washburn, and we handled ourselves better, but we have a lot to improve.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During the game, the Tigers had nine service errors and 25 attacking errors, which according to Wood-Atkins, were things that hurt the team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe simply had too many errors,\u201d she said.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Defensive specialist Kirsten Evans also addressed the team\u2019s serving errors as something that they noticed during the game and that held them back.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cNormally don&#8217;t have as many service errors as we did today. I don&#8217;t really know what caused that, but yes, we definitely noticed it,\u201d Evans said. \u201cWe tried to fix it, but unfortunately, we probably still had more (serving errors) than they did.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow aligncenter\" data-effect=\"slide\"><div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_container swiper-container\"><ul
