LOCK HAVEN, Pa. – The Lady Eagles wore special edition pink uniforms tonight in honor of their “Dig Pink” festivities, but it was the same story as the Lock Haven University volleyball team (28-4, 15-2 PSAC) soared past the opposition.
Tonight the Lady Eagles cruised past visiting Millersville University 3-0 (25-8, 25-17 & 25-18).
The win marked the 20th straight for LHU.
Leading the way tonight was a host of players, including Xuan Gao (Dong Ying, China/Zibo No. 10 Middle School), who had a match-high 10 kills, while hitting a red-hot .562.
Christie Naumann (Charters Towers, Austrailia/Gladstone) added nine kills, while Haley Gribler (Powell, Ohio/Olentangy-Liberty) and Kim Windstein (McMurray, Pa./Peters Township) each added eight.
Windstein hit a sizzling .889, as her eight kills came on nine attempts without an error. She also added two aces to round out a superb performance on her home court.
Christina Laury (Horsham, Pa./Hatboro-Horsham) led the team in aces and digs with six and 20, respectively.
Fabiana Gomez (Montevideo, Uruguary/Consejo de E.S.) turned in a solid effort with a match-high 20 aces.
Dig Pink night was to help raise awareness for cancer research.
Lock Haven is back in action tomorrow (Saturday, October 31) at 4 p.m. when the Lady Eagles host Shippensburg on “Senior Night.”
