Knights at Bruins

The Niagara College women's volleyball (6-0, 2^nd West) program will look to keep their undefeated record intact Wednesday evening as they head out on the road to face the Sheridan Bruins (5-2, 4^th West). 

Niagara is one of only two undefeated teams in the entire OCAA, the other team being Humber College (7-0, 1^st West).  The Bruins are rolling as of late, winning five of their last six matches and are coming off a 3-0 win against St. Clair (4-4, 5^th West).

When these two teams met last season, the Knights won both contests 3-0 and 3-1.  Fourth year middle blocker Alexandria Botelho (Stoney Creek) led Niagara with 21 points in those two games.

The Bruins boast a duo of players who have had impressive starts to the season in Jordie Bevan and Melissa Cappelletti.  Jordie currently ranks second overall in the OCAA with 4.88 digs per set, while fourth year right side Melissa Cappelletti is tied for second in scoring with 4.1 points per set.

The Knights are led by outside hitter Lucy McLay (Stratford), who is currently ranked top five or better in kills per set and points per set.  First year Georgetown native Bailey Davis has begun to establish herself as the top setter in the OCAA, where she ranks first in the province with 9.24 assists per set.  Her 37 assists against Conestoga led to her being named Niagara College Female Athlete of the Week (November 24^th).

First serve is scheduled for 6:00pm.
