CHARLESTON, S.C. — The College of Charleston Cougars defeated the Davidson Wildcats, 3-0 (21-25, 22-25, 19-25), in Southern Conference volleyball play Sunday afternoon at TD Arena.
Sophomore outside hitter Caroline Brown led Davidson (12-5, 2-2 SoCon) with 14 kills and 12 digs, and sophomore middle hitter Tindall Sewell added eight on 16 attacks. Junior setter Ariel Ley finished with 29 assists, and junior libero Molly Crenshaw tallied 11 digs.
Sarah Havel and Sloane White paced the College of Charleston (13-7, 4-0 SoCon) with 12 kills apiece. Taeler Davis and Kallie McKown split the setting duties, dishing out 21 and 15, respectively, while Emily Shelton tallied a match-high 21 digs to lead the defense.
Charleston used a 9-2 run to open a 14-8 lead in the opening set. The Wildcats responded with four straight points, including a kill from senior outside hitter Christine Perzinski and an ace by Brown to narrow the gap, 14-11, but the Cougars answered with a 5-2 spurt of their own and stayed in control of the set. The Wildcats fought off four set points behind kills by Brown and senior opposite Erin Lupfer and a block by senior middle hitter Madison Benedict, but Kelly Kolich and Elyse Chubb's block finally ended the set, 25-21 in the Cougars' favor.
The teams traded points to open the second set before Davidson opened a 10-7 lead on a kill by Perzinski. Back-to-back kills by Sarah Havel and a Wildcat hitting error knotted the set at 10, and the teams were tied five times and as late as 17-17 in the back-and-forth battle. The Cougars took control with three straight scores to take a 20-17 lead, but the Wildcats responded with a pair of kills by Perzinski and Sewell to get within a point. Charleston won four of the next six points, and Davidson fought off three set points before White punched home the winner, 25-22, to put the Cougars ahead 2-0 in the match.
Davidson battled back from a 4-1 deficit to tie the score with three straight kills from Brown, Perzinski and Sewell. The teams traded points with five ties, the last at 11-11 when the Cougars took the lead for good on consecutive kills by Kolich and White. Sewell put the 'Cats back within a score, but Charleston opened a 17-14 lead, which proved enough, and Havel and Davis went back-to-back to finish off the set, 25-19, and the match.
Davidson returns to action, hosting Western Carolina at 7 p.m. on Friday, October 7 at Belk Arena, before a three-match road swing.
