#9 Women's Volleyball Earns Sweeping Victory over North Park

The #9 Millikin women's volleyball team earned a sweeping victory over the Vikings of North Park University on Wednesday, October 23 at the Griswold Center in Decatur, Ill. With the win, Millikin moves to 6-1 in College Conference of Illinois & Wisconsin play, 24-3 overall.

Kyra Carothers notched 11 kills in the match and five blocks, including a huge mid-third set block to put MU up 10-8. Kaitlyn Skowronski chipped in nine kills, and Delaney Higgins added eight. Gracie Shaffer was the assists leader with 19, and Alyssa Frederking added 17. Sophia Howell and Skowronski each recorded 13 digs. 

After winning the first set in a close 25-22 battle, it took extra points to decide the second set in a 27-25 decision. The Big Blue wrapped up a back-and-forth third set with a 25-22 win. After the third set was tied at 22 apiece, the Big Blue rattled off three consecutive points with a kill by Carothers, a block by Higgins, then wrapped up with an Addison Oyer kill to secure the sweep. 

Millikin will take a quick break from conference play, traveling to Bloomington, Ill. over the weekend to match up with Simpson College and Albion College at the Illinois Wesleyan Classic II on Friday, October 25.
