Volleyball: Dominating defense leads Roadrunners to 20th win

SPEARFISH, S.D. - No. 20 Metropolitan State University of Denver held Black Hills State to a .000 hitting percentage to sweep the Yellow Jackets 25-15, 25-22, 25-18 in Spearfish, S.D., on Friday night. The Roadrunners improved to 20-3 overall and 14-1 in the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference, while BHSU dropped to 9-15 and 7-8.

It marks the sixth time in the past seven seasons the Roadrunners have reached 20 wins and the fastest they have reached 20 wins since 2001.

Kylie Haun (Simpsonville, S.C./Hillcrest H.S.) led the defense with 17 digs and Savannah Garcia (Platteville, Colo./Valley H.S.) added 16. Garcia also had four service aces, helping the team to seven.

The team's 11 blocks were the most in a three-set match since 2012. Kylee Hoagland (Mead, Colo./Skyline H.S.) led the team with five total blocks and Julia Dorsey (Auburn, Calif./Placer H.S.) had four, including three solos.

Offensively, Abbie Noland (Martinez, Calif./Campolindo H.S.) had a match-high 10 kills. Lauren Quijano (Wildomar, Calif./Elsinore H.S.) and Summer Greager (Colorado Springs, Colo./Colorado Springs Christian H.S.) each had seven and Hoagland added six.

MSU Denver dominated the first set, limiting the Yellow Jackets to a minus-.059 hitting percentage.

The second set was much of the same as the Roadrunners led 24-14 before BHSU fought off set point eight times.

The third set again saw MSU Denver hold BHSU to a negative hitting percentage (-.031).

The Roadrunners will play at Chadron State at 6 p.m. on Saturday.
