Volleyball Takes Care of Lake Superior State in Straight Sets

Wayne State improved to 7-0 this season when hitting at least .280.

DETROIT -- The Wayne State University volleyball team (12-11 overall, 9-4 GLIAC) made it five wins in the last seven matches on Friday night by sweeping Lake Superior State (7-17 overall, 2-11 GLIAC) inside the Matthaei.  The Warriors hit .351 in the process, their fourth-highest clip of the fall and third-best mark at home, while moving above the .500 mark overall for the first time since starting the campaign 1-0.

"It was a complete match by the Warriors this evening," said head coach Tim Koth.  "An outstanding match by Keilyn (Carpenter) this evening, she really set a tone for us."

Wayne State 3, Lake Superior State 0
HOW IT HAPPENED (-10, -16, -17)
- Wayne State has won five of the last seven matches and five of the previous six in league play.
- If the Warriors win on Saturday against Saginaw Valley State and Ferris State defeats Michigan Tech in Big Rapids, WSU will host a GLIAC Tournament quarterfinal match.
- Wayne State hit .351 with 45 kills and only 11 errors on 92 total attempts.
- Lake Superior State countered with a .084 clip on 27 kills, 19 mishaps and 95 attempts.
- The Warriors most efficient set was the first at .519 (15-1-27).
- The Lakers best offensive period came in the third at .152 (10-5-33).
- Three WSU hitters registered 10 or more kills including Kayla Giroux (13), Keilyn Carpenter (10) and Molly Miller (10).
- Those three tallied hitting percentages of .435, .667 and .333, respectively.
- Katie Smith was right outside of that trio with nine kills of her own.
- Smith was just as efficient too hitting .350 in her own right.
