Women's Volleyball - vs. Martin Luther College
No let down for Saints in win over Martin Luther


The giddiness of the previous evening's victory might still have been in the players' heads, but the Saints didn't let it affect them in their 3-0 victory over the Knights in the Reif Center today.
A tight, first game win may have helped the team keep their focus on the match at hand, and the result was easy victories in the following two games - 30-28, 30-21, 30-15.
The team's successful attack percentage was an amazing .441 - nearly 50% of the time the Saints went for the kill, they got it. Ashley Hanson had 18 kills and Erin Niles was also in double figures with 11. Laura Lief was the match leader in assists today with 42, and eight Saints had a dig in the three game sweep.
The win leaves the Saints with a 7-2 conference mark, breathing down the neck of the new UMAC leader, Northwestern College - the team's opponent next Saturday afternoon in St. Paul.
