NASHUA, N.H. – The Plymouth State women’s volleyball team traveled to Nashua to square off against the team from Rivier University in what would turn out to be a great battle.
River was able to take the two first sets and looked ready to take the 3-0. However, the Panthers roared (yeah, I went there) back to take the next two sets to tie it up 2-2 going into the fifth set. The Panthers, who were holding a 7-2 lead at the time, looked ready to bring home the win when the Raiders went on an absurd 13-5 run to run the victory and move to 7-3 on the season.
The lady Panthers were lead against by the standout play of senior Casey Stoodley (Salem, N.H.) who had a season-high 29 digs with 18 kills on the day. Freshman Sam Clark (Coventy, R.I.) and Kristen Perrotta (Hudson, NH) contributed in a big way. Clark finished the day with eight kills, whereas Perrotta posted 31 assists and a team-high three aces.
