Trojans Sweep Series Against Newberry

NEWBERRY, S.C. -- In their second to last road game of the regular season, the Trojans swept Newberry College (9-10) to take the series without dropping a set. Anderson moves to 15-5 overall on the season and 10-2 in the SAC with the win.

"I felt like tonight we played a pretty steady match from start to finish," head coach Todd Hay said. "There were some moments when our passing had a tough time getting it to the target consistently but we weathered the storm. Our blocking showed a lot of effort tonight and that was a big point of emphasis going in. Now we shift back to the home court for three in a row beginning Thursday. We look forward to seeing everyone at 6:00 pm against an up and coming Catawba team."

The Trojans swung .288 on the night with 45 kills to the Wolves' 34. They came up with nine blocks and 54 digs for a strong defensive effort. Their aggressive serving paid off as well with six aces.

Junior Emily Campbell (Statesville, N.C.) had a monster night with 11 kills and no errors for a season-high .647 clip. She added three blocks and one ace. 

Junior Ava Reeves (Lexington, S.C.) came up with ten kills, two blocks and five digs.

Junior Ellie Nieporte (Boca Raton, Fla.) had a big double-double with 35 assists, good for 11.6 assists per set, and 12 digs along with two blocks and one ace. 

Sophomore Maura Kindel (Easley, S.C.) tacked on eight kills while sophomore Mia Elder (Leland, S.C.) added seven.

On defense, senior Katy Smith (Fleming Island, Fla.) came up with nine digs and one ace while freshman Jamie Juhnevicz had eight digs and two aces. 

The Trojans begin a three-game homestand on Thursday, Oct. 30 when they host Catawba College at 6 p.m. It will be the first meeting between the two teams this season.
