Scots End Regular Season With Sweep on Senior Day

LOOKOUT MOUNTAIN, Ga. - It was a special day for Covenant Volleyball as it recognized Amber Snook, Kinsley Dupree, and Ella Bailey on their Senior Day. After the pregame celebrations, the Scots had a match to play, and they didn't blink an eye as they swept Mississippi University for Women. 

Final: Covenant 3, Miss. University for Women 0
Records: Covenant (19-13), Miss. University for Women (10-20)

In set one, neither side could gain much of a lead as the score read 20-19, Covenant, late in the set. Behind two kills from Kennedy Barber, the Scots scored the next three points to go up four. A few points later, another kill from Barber followed by an MUW attack error ended the set at 25-20. 

Set two was a different story as Covenant raced ahead 8-3 and did not look back. The set ended with the Scots scoring five of the last six points to close off a 25-16 win. Covenant's last two points were service aces from Sarah Jennings. 

MUW started to gain some momentum in set three, leading by as many as five points at 12-7. Shortly afterwards, Covenant went on a 5-0 run to tie the set. Helped on by kills from seniors Bailey and Dupree, Covenant moved back ahead 21-18. Shortly afterwards, MUW held off one match point, but a kill by Gabby Sumrall ended things at 25-23. 

In the team box score, Covenant had 46 kills to MUW's 32. Defensively, each team had eight total blocks while Covenant had a higher count in digs, 76-66. 

With a career-high 13 kills while hitting .481, Barber was the leader of the Covenant attack. Cali Sandhoff delivered another double-double for the home side, posting 19 assists and 12 digs. 

Snook came through with 22 assists on her Senior Day, while fellow senior Dupree brought in a career-high 16 digs. The final senior, Bailey, was impactful with seven kills. Leading Covenant in digs was Sarah Jennings with 20.
