MIAMI GARDENS, Fla- The STU women's volleyball team was in action on the road Wednesday evening taking on arch rival Florida Memorial University. STU would sweep the Lions 3-0. The match took place inside the Chester Robinson Center. The last time these two teams met the Bobcats swept FMU 3-0.

STU started off the first set in style with a quick service ace. STU would go on to take a 7-1 lead early on and would go on an impressive run.

STU stared the second set with an impressive showing defensively with a big block from Nicole McInnis, this would set the tone for the rest of the match. “I think I did pretty well overall, but I think I need to work on some things, McInnis said overall I think the team did very well” McInnis added.

STU dictated most of the ebb and flow and rhythm of the match by serving extremely well. “I think any time you serve that well, it tends to affect the point spread” coach Friedman Sifontes said.

Coach Sifontes was satisfied with his team's performance after the match. “I think we have a certain comfort level when we step on the court Sifontes said I think we are getting to where we need to go” Sifontes added.

The Bobcats would go on to win the third set 25-3.
