Sea Gulls make it four wins in a row, cruise to three-set win against Hood

Box Score

FREDERICK, Md. - The Salisbury University volleyball team extended its win streak to four matches on Friday evening, collecting a 3-0 victory at Capital Athletic Conference opponent Hood College. The 25-15, 25-18, 25-17 victory marks the Sea Gulls' 14th straight-set win of the season. 

Salisbury (18-10, 5-2 CAC) was led by sophomore setter Carley Todd, who posted a team-high 16 digs and four block-assists to go with her eight kills and 10 assists. Sophomore Kelly Vieira had 13 digs, one solo block and three block-assists in the victory. Salisbury won the first two games of the set without great difficulty.

Hood (5-14, 0-8 CAC), however, would not go down without a fight. The Blazers opened up the third game with a 3-0 scoring run, but Salisbury would answer back with three points of its own to knot up the score. That back-and-forth action would continue until later on in the game when a string of five-straight Sea Gull points would increase the Salisbury advantage to 21-13 and limit any further opportunities for the Blazers.

The match was part of Hood's "Dig Pink" night, a fundraiser to promote breast cancer awareness. Salisbury's own community event, the first-ever "Digs for Dogs" match, raised over $2,200 for the Humane Society of Wicomico County and The Dog House last night.

The Sea Gulls return home on Wednesday, Oct. 27, to square off against CAC foe York (Pa.) College. Game time is set for 7 p.m.
