Knights Win Pair to Improve to 9-0

Potsdam, NY - With 28 aces over six sets, the Clarkson University Volleyball team kept its opponents on their heels all night as the Golden Knights posted a pair of sweeps, beating SUNY Potsdam in three sets (25-13, 25-8, 25-6) and then defeating Middlebury College in three straight (25-8, 25-20, 25-16).

Clarkson will hit the road for a pair of matches on Saturday, facing Elmira College and Utica College on day two of a tournament held at Oswego State. 

From the start of the match against Potsdam, the Golden Knights set a tone from the service line, producing six aces in the opening set, a pace they would maintain throughout the hour-long meeting. Kristin Werdine recorded three aces in the first five points, and the Knights rattled off 10 straight points midway through the game to take a 17-2 lead. Potsdam battled back with a strong serving effort of its own, but were too far back to make significant noise.

The final two sets were total domination by Clarkson, as the Knights delivered 13 more aces and hit .524 and .571, respectively in the final two games.

Clarkson hit .458 overall (34-7-59) in the match and had 19 aces overall against just four errors. Rachel Reusch hit .550 (11-0-20) with a pair of aces and Delaney Harrison added seven kills and three total blocks. Isabelle Crow notched 15 assist and seven aces and Kristin Werdine contributed six aces overall. Kate Isaksen led the team with 14 digs.

For Potsdam, Kendall Jones had nine assists and Natalie Magallon recorded seven digs and two aces. The 27 total points scored by the Bears were the fewest that Potsdam recorded against Clarkson since 1988, back when it was a best-of-three format and teams could only score while serving (15-13, 15-10).

It appeared as if Middlebury would pose a larger threat to Clarkson's unbeaten streak, but the Panthers struggled mightily in the first set before getting themselves established to challenge Clarkson. The Panthers recorded just two kills in the first set while Clarkson battered Middlebury to the tune of .303 hitting percentage (15-5-33). The second set was a truer gauge in judgment of Middlebury's talent level, as the Panthers twice tied the Knights late (18-18 and 19-19). However, Clarkson received two kills from Rachel Reusch to provide some separation and Delaney Harrison ended the set with a kill. The third set was more of the same, as the Panthers were close late (17-14), but the Knights found the necessary gear to pull away, receiving kills from Harrison, Werdine and Kurtic before Werdine put the match away with a strike from the right side.

Werdine enjoyed a double-double on 13 kills and 10 digs while also tossing in a match-best four aces. Reusch contributed 14 kills and Kurtic went 9-0-17 to hit above .500 in the match. Delaney Harrison also had eight kills against just one error in 22 swings. Isabelle Crow notched 40 assists and 11 digs for a double-double, while Kate Isaksen (17 digs) and Celestial Barrera-Lopez (10 digs) to lead the defense.

For Middlebury, Jane Nelson struck for six kills with Gigi Alper and Shea Golden scoring 13 and 12 digs, respectively.
