Women's Volleyball Sweeps MSOE in Marty Petersen Invitational Opener

The Big Blue women's volleyball team traveled to Oshkosh, Wis. on Friday, September 8 for the Marty Petersen Invitational, hosted by the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh. Millikin faced the Milwaukee School of Engineering in their opening contest, downing MSOE in straight sets (25-15, 25-16, 25-14). 

The Big Blue were led in kills by Addison Oyer with 11. Kailee Itzenhuiser and Elle Richards each added six. Sophia Howell notched three service aces in addition to her 17 digs. Itzenhuiser was the digs leader with 20. The freshmen setting duo of Alyssa Frederking and Gracie Shaffer tallied 21 and 13 assists, respectively. 

Millikin outkilled MSOE 42-23. MSOE was led by Emma Schattschneider with 13 kills. 

The Big Blue took an early lead in the first set, using a 10-0 run to take an 11-4 lead and never looking back. The second set saw a closer contest, but two consecutive aces off the hand of Howell put Millikin up 21-13 late in the set. A kill by Emma Taylor secured the 25-16 victory. In the final set, MSOE kept things close until a 6-0 run stretched the Millikin lead to 17-8. The Big Blue capped off the sweep with a kill from Delaney Higgins.

Millikin will return to the Kolf Center in Oshkosh, Wis. on Saturday, September 9 for matchups with Ohio Northern University, slated for a 9:00 AM start, and the host Titans of UW-Oshkosh.
