Gannon Volleyball Wins Five-Set Thriller at Indiana (Pa.)

There is no easy match in the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC).

The Gannon Lady Knights played their second road match in two days and came away with a hard fought win at Indiana (Pa.), 24-26, 25-21, 25-19, 17-25, 15-5.

In set one the Lady Knights held a 24-23 advantage but the Crimson Hawks charged back with three straight points to win the set, 26-24.

Set two was tight as the Lady Knights clung to a 21-20 lead before the Beka Smith (Churchville, N.Y./Churchville-Chili) and Hannah Kren (Waukesha, Wis./Wisconsin Lutheran) added two timely kills to give Gannon some breathing room and a 25-21 set victory.

Gannon had a 19-16 advantage in set three before the Lady Knights strung together four straight points capped off by a Kelsey Ansec (Solon, Ohio /Solon) kill.

Ansec had a team-high 18 kills in the contest.

GU got behind early in set four and could never seem close the gap. The Lady Knights closed to within 18-16 but the Crimson Hawks finished on a 7-1 run to win the set, 25-17.

Gannon dominated set five, winning 15-5. Carolyn Knollman (Cincinnati, Ohio/Saint Ursula Academy) ended the match with the Lady Knights' 64th and final kill.

Knollman had a career-high 49 assists in the match.

The Lady Knights move to 16-2 this season and 5-1 in the PSAC.

The Crimson Hawks fall to 13-4, 4-2 in the conference.

Gannon heads back to Erie, Pa. to play at crosstown rival Mercyhurst on Tuesday, Oct. 11, at 7 p.m. Gannon leads the all-time matchup, 39-26.
