VOLLEYBALL SWEEPS STONEHILL, 3-0, ON “SENIOR DAY” FOR THIRD STRAIGHT WIN

Syracuse, N.Y. – Senior middle blocker Danica Durdines (Alta Loma, Calif./Los Osos) and junior right side Jessica Miller (Williamsville, N.Y./Williamsville South) each hit over .400 to lead the Le Moyne College volleyball team to a 3-0 victory over Stonehill College in Northeast-10 Conference action on Saturday morning.

The Dolphins opened the match with a 25-13 victory in the first set, which included scoring the final nine points. Le Moyne followed with a 25-14 win in the second set, which included seven of the last nine points, for a 2-0 lead in the match. The Dolphins tallied the final three points for a 26-24 victory in the third set to close out the match.

Durdines hit a match-best .412 after landing nine of her 17 swings, including four kills in the third set, while adding a pair of blocks. Miller landed nine kills, including six in the first set, without committing an error en route to a .409 hitting percentage. Miller has recorded 36 kills in Le Moyne's three-match win streak and committed just two errors in 85 attempts. Junior outside hitter Anna Hafoka (Hurst, Texas/L.D. Bell) was the only Dolphin to record double-digit kills with a match-best 12.
