Emory Volleyball Sweeps UAA Foes

The Emory University volleyball team closed out play at the University Athletic Association Round Robin II on Sunday with a pair of victories.  The Eagles opened with a 3-0 triumph (25-14, 25-18, 25-17) over Brandeis before winding up the weekend with a 3-0 verdict over Case Western (25-18, 25-21, 25-21).  Emory now stands 24-5 on the year, 6-1 in league action.  Serving as the host of this weekend's Round Robin was New York University.

Senior Alysse Meyer recorded a team-high 10 kills against the Judges of Brandeis while junior Amelia McCall chipped in eight terminations. The Eagles notched 13 total team blocks and were led in the category by freshman Alex Duhl's two block solos and three block assists. Sophomore Brannan O'Neill totaled a squad-leading 14 digs, and senior Vista Murphy played a solid defensive match as well with 10 digs.  Sophomore Natalie Schonefeld finished with 29 assists and contributed six block assists.

Sophomore Alexandra Wright slammed away for 13 kills against Case Western while Meyer and Duhl posted nine put-aways apiece.  Wright was a formidable presence at the net with one block solo and five block assists.  Schonefeld rang up 43 assists and O'Neill finished with a team-leading 12 digs.

Emory returns to action on Thursday (Oct. 22) when it hosts Lee University and USC-Aiken at the Woodruff PE Center.
