Box Score

LANCASTER, Pa. – Meghan McConville and Kristina Mercier each posted 11 kills to lead Gettysburg to a 3-1 win over Franklin & Marshall in Centennial Conference (CC) Volleyball action on Wednesday. The win gave the Bullets sole possession of first place in the Centennial with a 3-0 record in league play (10-9 overall), while F&M suffered its first Centennial loss to drop to 2-1 in-league (4-11 overall).

Gettysburg raced out to a 2-0 lead, thanks in part to unforced errors by F&M in the second game. The Diplomats held a two-point lead, late in the game, but watched it slip away. F&M mounted a comeback effort taking the fourth game, but the Bullets jumped on the Diplomats early in the fourth to seal it up.

The Gettysburg victory snapped F&M's winning streak at three matches.

Amanda Krampf fed Mercier, McConville and the Bullets' offense throughout the evening, finishing the match with 37 assists. Kristen Kotewicz spearheaded the Bullets' defensive effort with 21 digs.

Erica Spangler paced F&M with eight kills and 14 digs. Jessica Poucel also recorded eight kills and had six digs on the back-end.

The Diplomats are idle until next Wednesday when F&M hosts McDaniel in CC action.
