How It Happened

• After a back and forth first few points, the Fighting Scots began to pull away to take an 8-3 lead forcing ENC to call a timeout to break up the streak. The break in action did not stop the Scots as Gordon continued to lay it on the Lions en route to a 12-3 advantage. Gordon continued to hold a comfortable lead throughout with Jordan Shaduk putting an Ashlyn Gergins set away to double up the Lions, 24-12. ENC was able to score two more points, but Marla Batson finished the game off with a kill and 25-14 W.
• With the scored tied at 2-2, Rebecca Majeau entered the game and served the blue and white to five unanswered points to lead 7-2. The Lions would answer back however, clawing their way back within a single point. The home team kept it close and with the score 13-12, Gordon's Hayley Robinson swayed the energy back in Gordon's favor from behind the service line. Gordon widened the gap to 18-12 before going on top, 22-13. ENC came within six points late, but it was not enough as the Scots went up 2-0 after a 25-18 victory.
• An ace by freshman, Kate Howe gave Gordon a commanding 13-5 lead in the third frame. The Scots took advantage of a handful of ENC attack errors to take the 25-14 win and overall 3-0 victory.
