Match Overview
- The Millersville volleyball team (11-15, 4-13 PSAC) is coming off a weekend split against the likes of Cheyney (3-0) and West Chester (1-3) on Friday and Saturday inside Pucillo Gymnasium. Shippensburg (14-13, 7-10 PSAC) has been on a bit of a tear lately and has won four straight matches. However, the Raiders have been victorious in just two of their last six matches away from Heiges Field House.
Series History
- Shippensburg leads the all-time series against the Marauders 32-25 and have taken last seven matches between the two teams. In those seven meetings, the Raiders haven't dropped a single set. One of those seven matches was Millersville's first match in the 2013 PSAC Tournament.
Last Time Out
- These two teams last met on Sept. 30 in Shippensburg with the Raiders winning in straight sets (28-26, 25-18, 25-23). In that match, Erin Harman led the Marauders in kills with 10 to just three errors on 30 total attacks for a .233 hitting percentage. Victoria Biggins dished out 29 assists, Brooklyn Smith led the team in digs with 20 while both Biggins and Kayla Wallace assisted in three blocks. For Ship, Faith Athey was on fire with 11 kills and only four errors on 23 swings for a blistering .304 hitting percentage.
Here to Serve You
- Millersville continues to excel in the serving department. The Marauders are sixth in the league in service aces per set (1.64). Individually, Taylor Smith is first on the team and seventh in the PSAC in total service aces with 41. Her 0.47 aces per set are good for sixth in the conference. Also on offense, Victoria Biggins is seventh in the league in assists per set at 8.36.
Erin Has Come to "Harm"an
- Freshman Erin Harman has had an outstanding season so far for the Marauders. The Hanover, Pa. native leads the team in kills with 213, is second in assists (44) and digs (231). She has sent home at least 10 kills in nine matches, dug out at least 10 balls in 10 matches and recorded four double-doubles.
Scouting the Raiders
- Much like West Chester on Saturday, the Raiders are one of the best blocking teams in the PSAC. They are second in the conference in solo blocks (59), fourth in block assists (318), total blocks (218.0), and blocks per set (2.16). Individually, Ship's Taylor Gottshall is the best at blocking attacks in the entire league. Her 1.25 blocks per set are first in the PSAC and so are her 119.0 total blocks. Gottshall is also second in the conference in both solo blocks (27) and block assists (92). On the offensive side of things, Maura Nolan is one of the best in the league at setting up the attack. Her 8.99 assists per set are fifth in the PSAC and so are her 863 total assists. Last season, Gottshall was named to the All-PSAC East Second Team and Nolan earned American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA) All-Region honorable mention.
