URBANA, Ohio -- The Urbana women's volleyball team kept rolling with a straight-set victory over MEC foe Charleston Tuesday night in the Warren G. Grimes Center. UU won by scores of 27-25, 25-17 and 25-17, en route to its eighth win in 10 matches.

The Blue Knights (16-13) improved to 8-3 in MEC play and have won six conference matches in a row. UU is now tied for second place in the MEC standings with Fairmont State.

Madison Davis (Nelsonville, Ohio) and Kaitlin Trace (Saint Paris, Ohio) also reached double-digit kills with 10 apiece while Aleese Butler (Blacklick, Ohio) (8 kills/.727) and Cecily Clark (Cincinnati, Ohio) (7 kills/.636) were solid contributors.

Libero Maia Dunlap (Zoarville, Ohio) secured a team-high 17 digs and Courtney Niesen (Cincinnati, Ohio) recorded 12 digs. Freshmen setter Anna Davis dished out 32 assists, tying her second-highest total this year.
