Golden Knights Improve to 7-0 With Sweeps of Wheaton and D'Youville

Potsdam, NY – After a five-set thriller on Friday, the Clarkson University Volleyball team cruised through a pair of matches on Saturday afternoon, sweeping both Wheaton College (25-19, 25-17, 25-10) and D'Youville College (25-6, 25-18, 25-13) to finish the North Country Invitational unbeaten.

The Golden Knights improved to 7-0 on the season and will host two more home games next Friday, facing SUNY Potsdam and Middlebury College before hitting the road Saturday for a pair of neutral site games at Oswego.

Things did not start off well for Clarkson in the first set against Wheaton, as the Lyons scored seven of the first 10 points of the game. Clarkson rallied to tie the set at 13-13, and eventually scored five straight points late in the set to turn a one-point deficit (17-16) into a four-point lead (21-17). Wheaton twice crawled back to within three points, but the Knights had enough to take the first set by six.

The first set was the only game where Wheaton truly challenged Clarkson as the Knights controlled the second set from the start. Wheaton tied the set a few times, but an 8-2 run midway through the set built Clarkson a six-point lead, and then a run of five straight points (four errors by the Lyons) gave the Knights an unsurmountable lead.

The third set was all Clarkson. The Knights led by six early (10-4) and then won eight of the next 12 points to take an 18-8 advantage. Five of the next six points went Clarkson's way, making the victory for the Knights inevitable.

Rachel Reusch hit .435 in the match with 13 kills and also added four blocks, while Gillian Kurtic struck at a .571 rate with eight kills in 14 tries. Kate Isaksen added 26 digs and Isabelle Crow recorded 35 assists. Becca Houghton led the Lyons' charge with 11 assists, seven digs and four kills.

Clarkson put forth a dominant effort against D'Youville, holding the Spartans to just 37 points over the three sets. In the opener, the Knights rattled off the first 12 points, including five aces by Isabelle Crow, and pushed the advantage to 17-1 before D'Youville started to put things together. In the second and third sets, the Spartans made things more interesting, trailing by just two points late in the second (20-18) before watching Clarkson score five straight to win. In the third, the two teams were tied at 10-10, but Clarkson got kills from five different players in a 7-1 run (17-11) and then finished off the game with an 8-1 run thanks to five kills and three aces.

The Knights produced 16 aces and hit .349 overall (40-10-86). Rachel Reusch scored nine kills to lead the Knights, while Kristin Werdine produced seven kills and Ivy Martin added six kills. Both Ocean Bryan (5-0-9) and Gillian Kurtic (5-0-11) hit without errors and combined for a .500 hitting percentage. Crow had 15 assists and six aces and Haley Aud notched 11 assists. Isaksen also recorded 18 digs and seven assists.
