MOUNT PLEASANT, Mich. – The University at Buffalo women's volleyball team (14-9, 6-6 MAC) swept the Central Michigan Chippewas (0-25, 0-12 MAC) on Saturday afternoon, 25-20, 25-18, 25-16. With the win, the Bulls are now 6-6 in conference play.
The Bulls controlled the match with superior efficiency, finishing with a .326 hitting percentage as they held Central Michigan managed just a .109 hitting mark. Buffalo finished with 43 kills to the Chippewas' 28. In total Buffalo finished with 59 points to Central Michigan's 38.
Hailey Campagna capped off her weekend with a match-high 11 kills, six kills and a block. Sydney Bell added nine kills and a .571 hitting percentage as she had just one error on 14 attempts. Five Bulls had 5+ kills on the day as Manoela Forlin and Abisola Adebayo had six with Abbie Willis adding five.
Sadie Gladhill had a match-high 13 digs.
Buffalo racked up a three-set match-high 10 aces as Forlin had a career-high five aces. Michal Benaim also added a career-high three aces.
SET 1 | Buffalo's defense held the Chippewas in check as they hit .071 with nine kills. Buffalo's offense rolled out with a .296 hitting percentage and 13 kills. The Bulls led wire-to-wire in the set with just one tie at 9-9. Buffalo led at the media timeout, 15-11, but expanded their lead to eight as they won the set, 25-20.
SET 2 | The Bulls' defense continued to keep the Chippewas in check as they hit .042 with six kills. Buffalo jumped out to a 10-3 lead. The offense kept rolling as they then led 22-10. Central Michigan started to find their rhythm in the later stages of the set, but it was too late as Buffalo won 25-17.
SET 3 | The third set was tighter than the first two, but the Bulls prevailed to pull away and win 25-16. The Chippewas led early on, but then the Bulls pulled away. Buffalo hit a match-best .429 with 17 kills and just two errors.
"Nothing better than a sweep on the road," exclaimed Head Coach Scott Smith. "We came out with a lot of focus and confidence and kept the pressure on from start to finish. We were disappointed with our serving yesterday so that was a major focus for us today. We had some really great standout performances from multiple positions and we hope to carry that forward into next weekend."
The Bulls are back home next Friday and Saturday as they'll host the Ball State Cardinals. Friday will serve as the Bulls' Horns Up for a Cause Match with Saturday being Senior Day. Match coverage will be on ESPN+.
