Colonels drop a pair of non-conference matches
One day after sweeping a pair of matches on the first day of the 2006 Centre College Halloween Bash, the Centre volleyball team dropped a pair of matches on day two, falling to the College of Mount St. Joseph and Heidelberg College, Sunday, Oct. 29, in Danville, Ky.
The Colonels started the day falling to Mount St. Joseph in three games, 30-28, 30-24, 30-19. Senior Kate Bennett (Louisville, Ky.) paced Centre with 30 assists, nine kills and two blocks. Junior Sarah Burger (Goshen, Ky.) led the Colonels with 15 kills and senior Megan McElveen (Cold Spring, Ky.) added 22 digs in the defeat.
The second match for the Colonels saw them drop a four-game match to Heidelberg 27-30, 30-18, 30-17, 30-13. Burger led Centre in both kills with 13 and blocks with three. Freshman Kelly McCoy (Lewisville, Texas) posted 11 kills and two blocks.
Bennett tallied 34 assists. McElveen added 19 digs and senior Ellie Exner (Durham, N.C.) recorded 15 digs and two service aces in the defeat.
Centre will return to action Wednesday, Nov. 1, when they host Transylvania University. It will be senior day for the Colonels as they will honor four seniors prior to the match. The non-conference match will start at 7 p.m. in Alumni Gymnasium in Danville, Ky.
