Make it 10! Eagles Win Tenth Straight Beating Bentley

Longest winning streak in program history

WATERBURY, Conn.- Post women's volleyball continues to prove that the Drubner Center is one of the most difficult places to play in all of Division II as it wins again at home 3-0 over Bentley on Thursday night.. The Falcons came into Drubner this evening and left the fourth team to fall to the Eagles at home this year. The Post University Eagles make it 10 straight in three sets, 25-21, 27-25, 25-18.

Sophomore Brianna Root (Bristol, Conn.) paced the Eagles with a team-high 36 assists. Leading the team in kills were sophomore Sarah Seger (Yorktown Heights, N.Y.) and senior Morgan Griffin (Plainfield, Conn.) with 11 apiece. Griffin recorded a .500 hitting percentage in the match as well.
 
In the first set Post jumped was in the midst of a battle with the Falcons of Bentley. The score was 11-10 before a pair of aces had pushed the lead to six, 17-11.

The second set was another battle but Post came out victorious yet again 27-25. The Eagles were down by a few early on but battled back to tie the match 7-7. The match was lengthened at the end due to a furious rally by Shannon Kelly and the Bentley Falcons, however it was Root and the Eagles that got the last laugh as she ended the set with a perfectly placed dump off the dig from junior Sarah Ryder (Cedar Rapids, Iowa).

Post won by its largest margin, 25-18, in the third set. Morgan Griffin kicked it into high gear as the senior led the team with five third-set kills.

Post has now captured it 10th consecutive victory, breaking a program record set in 2004. Next game for the Eagles will be on Saturday, Sept. 24 against Philadelphia University at 12 p.m.
