GAMBIER, Ohio (9-1-2010) - The Mount Vernon
Nazarene University women's volleyball team
extended its winning streak to eight
straight matches as the Lady Cougars swept a
non-conference match at Knox County rival
Kenyon College by the scores of 25-11,
25-18, 25-19 in Tomsich Arena on Wednesday
night.
 Senior
middle hitter Jackie Albrecht led a balanced
attack with nine kills, 11 digs, and three
aces for MVNU (8-1) against the Ladies
(0-1), while senior middle hitter Sarah
Yutzy (left) finished with
eight kills and five blocks. Freshman
outside hitter Kendra Votaw also pounded
eight kills to go with two aces, and
sophomore setter Lauren Percival handed out
28 assists to go with eight digs. Senior
libero Caitlin Myles also posted 13 digs.
"After a slow start, (Kenyon) played well
and challenged us in the second and third
sets,” said MVNU coach Paul Swanson. "They
have come a long way since last year and are
much improved. We were not as consistent in
the back row tonight as I would have liked,
but at the end of the day we did get the job
done. We need to step our play up for this
weekend, though.”
The Lady Cougars will return to action on
Friday when MVNU will take part in the
nine-team St. Vincent (Pa.) College Bearcat
Challenge. The Lady Cougars will face
Roberts Wesleyan (N.Y.) College at 5 p.m.
and Houghton (N.Y.) College at 9 p.m. Then,
MVNU will return to action on Saturday at 1
p.m. against Carlow (Pa.) University and
then at 3 p.m. against the University of
Pittsburgh-Greensburg.
