Volleyball Sweep the Red Wolves in Three Sets for Perfect Weekend

RICHMOND, IND. - - The Phoenix swept the Red Wolves in three straight sets to finish the weekend with a perfect record. 

Joao Infante led the Phoenix with an impressive 14 kills on the day and a .333, while Francesco Corradini chipped in with four kills and two blocks. Frederick Amegbletor was solid at the net, putting up six blocks. Alexander Heuer found his rhythm at the service line as he picked up five service aces. Cumberland finished with a .183 hitting percentage and held their opponents to a .028. 

Cumberland came out aggressive in the first set taking the early 5-0 lead including back to back service aces from Heuer. The Red Wolves gathered themselves and started to put the pressure back on CU, however another four point run extended the Phoenix lead at 18-8 as IU East took the timeout. The Phoenix attack were finding success and proved too much for the Red Wolves as they cruised to a 25-15 first set victory. 

Cumberland kept up the pressure in the second set with Heuer finding a lot of success at the service line with his third service ace to make the game 6-1. IU East managed to respond through a number of blocks as well as capitalizing on Cumberland errors to bring the game back level at 6-6. Both teams kept battling as the score remained close until the Phoenix found a burst of energy late with three consecutive kills to make the set 24-19 before a service error ensured the second set would go the way of CU. 

Cumberland would go on another six point run at the beginning of the third set, including two Corradini kills and another by Infante. IU East stayed composed and managed to claw their way back into the set at 7-6. Cumberland kept a narrow lead through some big kills and defensive plays at the net. Although IU East tried to make a push, the Phoenix held strong and an Austin Kuehler kill ensured the 25-22 victory as the Phoenix took the game in three straight sets. 

The Phoenix are back in action on March 10 as they face Midway University at the Dallas Floyd Phoenix Arena. The game is set to begin at 6PM CT.
