SALISBURY, Md. - No ghosts, goblins or Mary Washington Eagles could ruin Salisbury University's volleyball team's Halloween Party tonight at the Maggs Center in the opening round of the 2006 Capital Athletic Conference tournament.

The second-seeded Sea Gulls (22-12) took down the seventh-seeded Eagles, 3-0, by the score of 30-18, 30-24, 30-18. Salisbury will now host third-seed Gallaudet University at 7 p.m., November 2. The Bison defeated York (Pa.) College 3-0 on Tuesday evening.

Salisbury senior Abbey Petrecca recorded a double-double with 29 assists and 13 digs while sophomore Jaime Marzocchi had a team-high 25 digs. Sophomore Stacey Krebs hammered home a team best 19 kills and served up four aces. Freshman Nicole Massarelli made four blocks in the victory.

The second game was the closes of the three as Mary Washington rallied from 11 points down to pull the game to within four down the stretch. Krebs recorded two kills to clinch the game for the Gulls, 30-24.

In the third game there were four ties before SU pulled away behind the play of its front line. The Sea Gulls took advantage of the Eagle miss communication and errors.

The first game went rather quickly as the Gulls led from start to finish.

Salisbury now faces Gallaudet, a team that the Gulls beat 3-2 the last time the two met in the Maggs Center on September 26. The Bison had defeated the Gulls, three days prior, with a 3-1 victory in the Salisbury Invitational.
