DULUTH, Minn. – After a month away from Reif Gymnasium, the St. Scholastica volleyball team started right where it left off, sweeping Bethany Lutheran College on Friday night.
The first set would be tight early, but the Saints (14-5, 3-0 UMAC) distanced themselves a little during the mid-portion of the set and a #Paige Hardy# kill gave the Saints a 25-19 set win.
In the second set, the Saints used a 6-0 run to break open another tight set to win it again by a score of 25-19. St. Scholastica had a match-high 17 kills in the set.
CSS controlled the latter part of the third set and was up 24-19. The Vikings (5-8, 1-2 UMAC) battled back to make it 24-23. However,
Paige Hardy (Hibbing, Minn./Hibbing HS) would end the match with a kill to make it 25-23.
Hardy led the Saints with 15 kills and 17 digs. That is her ninth double-double this season. #Anna Zyvoloski# had 14 kills and #Taylor Tyllia# added eight kills. #Sarah Kurtovich# had 42 set assists.
The Saints have yet to lose back-to-back matches this season and improve to 8-7 against the Vikings all-time.
