Green Bay Sweeps RMU

RMU Volleyball Recap (10/22/22)

Moon Township, Pa. – The RMU volleyball team lost to Green Bay at home by a score of 3-0. The Colonials overall record is now 8-16 (.333) during the 2022 season, and 1-11 (.083) in the Horizon League.
 
MOMENTS THAT MATTERED
In set one, the Colonials were strong right off the bat, taking a 9-7 lead at the UPMC Events Center. Emma Brown, Ally Christman, Abby Ryan and Alyssa Hudak combined for five kills to help RMU take the initial lead. The Phoenix rallied back to making the score 9-10. RMU stuck with it, making the scoreboard 14-16. But, Green Bay pulled away, winning the first set 18-25.
 
During the second set, there were 11 tie scores and five different lead changes. RMU got ahead by a score of 8-6 and then 16-15. As the back and forth action continued, senior outside hitter Alyssa Hudak officially hit her 800th career kill. Feeding off that momentum was junior outside hitter Abby Ryan scoring seven kills in the second set. With the score at 19-24 and the Phoenix at set point, the Colonials wouldn't back down. Alyssa Hudak poised another kill that was originally scored an attack error, but head coach Danny Doherty successfully won the challenge. RMU was awarded another point after Green Bay made an attack error, and then sophomore Page Gross spiked a kill. The Colonials pulled within two, before the Phoenix added a point to win the set 22-25.
 
Abby Ryan continued her production in the third set, pacing four more kills. The freshman setter Kaitlyn Brown provided three digs on defense. The final score was 14-25 going to Green Bay.
 
Overall, Abby Ryan put up 15 kills along with seven digs and Ally Christman earned eight kills. Kaitlyn Brown assisted 29 times in back to back games. Since becoming the main setter for the team seven games ago, she's averaged 26.29 assists per game.
 
MILESTONE WATCH
Allena Carmody is looking to become the second student-athlete for the Colonials to join the RMU 1,000 Dig-Club in as many years. Carmody after tonight's match owns 999 career digs making her just one away. She can surpass this mark on Friday at IUPUI (10/28). With 349 digs this season, she's collected more digs than her career best 326 digs from last season. Alyssa Hudak now sits with 802 career kills, achieving this milestone tonight against Green Bay.
 
QUOTABLE 
"From the first serve to the last point, we have to come in with the identity that we're going to win" said head coach Danny Doherty. "I think we had that identity this weekend and we really need to keep at it. I think we're doing some great things at key positions and it's not too far off the radar for what we want." 

UP NEXT
RMU heads back out to travel for a three-game road trip. They face IUPUI at 6 p.m. (10/28), Purdue Fort Wayne at 4 p.m. (10/29), and Oakland (11/1) at 6 p.m.
