Saturday, October 15 at 4:00 p.m.
This week's women's volleyball game of the week features La Roche College (5-10, 2-0 AMCC) at Penn St. Behrend (10-11, 1-2 AMCC) on Saturday afternoon. Behrend will be looking for revenge, as La Roche secured the 3-0 upset victory over the Lions in the 2015 AMCC championship tournament.
La Roche sophomore OH Laura Nath continues to put together an incredible sophomore campaign. Against Thiel College last week, Nath finished with 28 kills making it three straight matches with at least twenty kills. She currently leads the AMCC by over a kill per set at 4.28 KPS which is the highest in the conference over the past five seasons. Freshman L Hannah Scott ranks first with 7.77 digs per set, while freshman MH Janet Aland ranks third with 0.87 blocks per set.
The Lions are looking to bounce back from a 3-2 loss to D'Youville on Wednesday night. Behrend set season highs in kills (69), digs (101) and assists (65) against the Spartans. Rachel Frye and Amanda Henry lead the Lions with 221 kills each, while Hannah Saunders has 658 assists on the season. Saunders surpassed the 2,000 assists mark earlier this year. Behrend is 11-1 all-time against La Roche, falling for the first time last season 3-0 in the AMCC semifinals.
