Morgan Dyer and Lexi Scholotterbeck had seven kills each.

"We started off strong in the first game and did a great job mixing up our attacks," Head Coach Rebecca Morgan said. "So far this season there has been a pattern of relaxing too much and getting comfortable during the second set, as we definitely struggled keeping the momentum up."

Despite that issue, the Lady Hawks have managed to only lose five sets total in their eight matches to improve their season record to 7-1. 

"We really were able to pick up the energy in the third set," Morgan said. "They served tough and made smart choices with their placement."

The Hawks look continue their momentum with a match-up at home against Cecil College on Monday September 23rd at 6:00PM.
