October 27, 2009
ELIZABETH CITY, NC - In a match that took less than an hour, the Elizabeth City State University volleyball team polished off Virginia Union University in three sets 25-8, 25-4, 25-13 Tuesday night at the RL Vaughan Center.
With the win the Lady Vikings capture their third straight Division title while finishing with a perfect 8-0 record in the CIAA East over that same time span.
ECSU overpowered Virginia Union (7-19, CIAA 4-10) from the start, serving up 15 aces and almost tripling the Lady Panthers kill output 34-8. The 50 minute match was the sixth time this season that the Lady Vikings disposed of their opponent in under an hour. They have now wrapped up their CIAA schedule and will enter next weekend’s CIAA Tournament in Hampton, VA as the top seed in the Eastern Division.
Senior Jennifer Hendy finished with a game high 9 kills while Xie’Ara Maybank-Smallings contributed 7 kills versus zero hitting errors and 5 solo blocks.
The Lady Vikings will hold Senior Night on Thursday honoring Hendy, Eva Johnson and Ashley Tarasoff when they welcome Lincoln University of Pennsylvania to the RL Vaughan Center. Game time is slated for 6:00 pm. For more information on ECSU Athletics, visit www.ecsuvikings.com.
