PHILIPPI, W. Va. - The Ursuline College volleyball team beat Alderson Broaddus University in four sets on Saturday (Oct. 18) afternoon.

UC won the first two sets, 25-23 and 25-18, before ABU took the third set, 25-21. UC rebounded with a 25-15 fourth set victory to take the match and get back on the road with a record of 14-5 overall and 6-2 in the Great Midwest Athletic Conference.

The Battlers, who entered Saturday on a two-match winning streak, are now 7-16 overall and 3-4 in conference play.

It was a total team effort on Saturday as five different Arrows were credited with a team-high six kills: freshman Courtney Burns, sophomores Emily Adkinson and Makayla Windau and juniors Abbie Fabo and Elise Harcek.
