FORT WAYNE, Ind. – The Indiana Tech women's volleyball team returned to the floor on Wednesday evening, welcoming the Siena Heights Saints into the Schaefer Center for a conference contest. Dismantling the Saints, the Orange and Black would come out on top, winning in three sets, 25-20, 25-19, and 25-19.
In the opening set, the two sides took a bit to get settled. As a result, the score remained level through the early stages. In the back half of the set, the Warriors began to separate from the Saints with a 7-1 run. From there, the Warriors would claim the 25-20 victory. Set two had a similar start to the first, as little separated the two sides. The Warriors gained momentum through a 4-0 run, which would give them a five-point advantage. That momentum is all the Warriors needed, as from there, Tech maintained control of the set, not allowing the Saints a way back in, taking set two 25-19. Again, in the third set, the score was level early on. With the score tied 8-8, the Orange and Black would tally seven straight points, giving them control of the set. Ultimately, the Warriors would complete the sweep with a 25-19 win.
