Big Blue Volleyball Upsets #8 Carthage

          The Millikin volleyball team opened play in the College Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin (CCIW) with a 3-0 upset of eighth ranked Carthage College on September 29 in the Griswold Center.  Millikin is now 12-5, 1-0 while Carthage falls to 13-3, 0-1.
          The first set was an epic CCIW battle with match going back and forth the entire set with the Big Blue finally pulling out the win 32-30.  The win seemed to give Millikin the confidence it needed as the Big Blue dominated the second set 25-13 and took the final set 25-20.
