Emory Volleyball Wins Two -- Runs Win Streak To Eight Matches

The No. 2-ranked Emory volleyball team ran its win streak to eight matches on Friday as it posted a pair of victories on the opening day of the Emory National Invitational Tournament.  The Eagles upped their overall won-lost ledger to 25-4 after coming away with 3-0 victories over Birmingham Southern (25-13, 25-20, 25-13) and Maryville College (25-13, 25-10, 25-14).

In the contest against the Panthers of BSC, Emory hit a solid 30.9 percent (39-10—94) compared to the visitor's mark of .033 percent (20-17—90).  The Eagles finished with a 49-41 edge in digs along with a 6-3 margin in total blocks.

Junior Jessica McAlvany led the offensive attack with 18 kills while registering a glittering 57.1 hitting percentage (18-2—28). Freshman Molly Landers totaled a team-high 13 digs and sophomores Breanah Bourque and Alena Ransom aided in the defensive effort with four block assists apiece.

Senior Amelia McCall, one of three four-year players to be recognized on Senior Night turned in a fine all-around game vs. Maryville, hitting 50 percent on the strength of nine kills and chipping in 12 digs, her 13th double-double of the year.  Also being recognized as seniors this evening were Ana Ramirez and Kelsey Krzyston.  Ransom topped all players with 10 terminations and recorded a 53.3 attack percentage (10-2—15).  Natalie Schonefeld dished out 31 assists and contributed seven digs.  The Eagles rang up a 29.0 attack percentage (44-15—100) as a team compared to the Scotts' -.049 percent (14-19—103).
