The Gordon College Fighting Scots Volleyball team went down the road to compete against the Endicott College Gulls in a Wednesday night Commonwealth Coast Conference (CCC) battle where the Gulls edged the Scots in a tight duel by a score of 3 - 1. 

How It Happened

• Annie Murphy came up big in the second set, putting together a five point run with her back at the service line, which included two aces for the junior.
