SALISBURY, Md. - Senior Abbey
Petrecca had a huge game for the Salisbury University
volleyball team as her double-double (30 assists, 21 digs) led the
Sea Gulls to a 3-0 sweep of Goucher College here on Tuesday evening
in Capital Athletic Conference action.
The Sea Gulls struggled in the first game before running off two
straight wins to seal the 30-25, 30-19, 30-20 victory.
Salisbury (16-9, 4-1 CAC) battled back and fourth with Goucher
(11-11, 0-5 CAC) in the first game, as neither team held a larger
lead then three points until the very end. The Gophers tied the
game at 23 after a long hit by the Sea Gulls landed out of bounds.
Salisbury then surrendered the lead for the first time at the 49th
point of the game, 25-24. The Sea Gulls then rallied behind the
serving of Petrecca to win the game, 30-25.
Sophomore Jaime Marzocchi made 18 digs and
freshman Savannah Tinsley added 11 of her own in
the match. Sophomore outside hitter Stacey Krebs
made 15 kills while fellow sophomore Lucy Rushing
