In system, and in rhythm, early and often Friday, the Marauders brought out the big guns in an impressive display to cap their Fall schedule.

McMaster blasted Toronto in three lopsided sets (25-13, 25-16, 25-10) at Burridge Gym to improve to 6-1 atop the OUA West division at the conclusion of play ahead of the holiday break.

With setter David Doty (London, ON) playing puppet master en route to a whopping total of 38 assists, the trio of left sides Brandon Koppers (Georgetown, ON) and Andrew Richards (London, ON), and opposite Matthew Passalent (Hamilton, ON), carried the offensive load for Mac with 39 combined kills.

Koppers was the most ruthlessly efficient of the bunch, thumping down 17 of 23 hitting attempts versus just two errors (65 per cent), and adding a solo block for a match high of 18 points.

His partners in offence, Richards and Passalent had 10 and 12 kills respectively, with Richards contributing two aces, one solo block and two block assists for 14 points, while Passalent hit 59 per cent and had an ace and block assist.

Defensively, McMaster held Toronto to just four per cent hitting, as the Blues hit just 19 kills versus 16 errors.

NEXT UP: The Marauders take on a second 2017 NCAA Final Four opponent, welcoming the Long Beach State 49ers to Burridge Gym for a two-match holiday series on Dec. 29 and 30. Tickets for those matches are available now.
