Women's Volleyball: Mac Completes Spotless Weekend with Sweep of Windsor

Aleks Arsovic was the Marauders top scorer yet again with 11 kills and 13 points Saturday.

Buoyed by balanced offence, the Marauders played their way to a second sweep in as many days at Burridge Gym, taking down the Windsor Lancers.

Set scores were 25-19, 25-20 and 25-19 in favour of McMaster (8-1), who retained their two-match lead atop the OUA West with the result.

Veteran outside hitter Aleks Arsovic once again led the way for the Marauders, thumping down a match high of 11 kills and adding an ace and a solo block for 13 points.

Finding offensive success through the middle, the duo of Hailey Kranics and Hailey Kranics both had 10 kills and 12 points in the win.

After seeing an early lead of as much as six points disappear by the onset of the technical timeout in the opening set, where they trailed 16-14, the Marauders bounced back from the break in emphatic fashion, winning 11 of the next 14 points to race to the finish line.

Arsovic's ace brought up set point, before Jessie Nairn fired down an ace on set point to seal it.

Roles reversed in set two, as the Marauders overhauled a deficit to edge the technical when Joanna Jedrzejewska killed for 16-15.

With her team angling for a two-set lead, Sorensen duly dusted off a party ball to bring up four of them, and connected cleanly on the ensuing slide play to end the set.

A pair of aces helped the Marauders to a 6-1 lead to open the third, but the Lancers slowly worked their way back, and leveled things at 18 after an errant attack from Sorensen.

That glimmer of hope for Windsor was fleeting, however, as Mac promptly reeled off seven of the next eight points to close out the match and avoid extra volleyball, winning it after a pair of kills from Jedrzejewska and Jill Eisenhauer.

NEXT UP: The Marauders remain at home at Burridge Gym for a rematch against the Guelph Gryphons, who McMaster swept in Guelph, on Friday, January 19. First serve is scheduled for 6:00 p.m.
