ABOUT THE MARAUDERS
• Millersville volleyball hosts three matches in three days as part of a stretch that includes five home matches in nine days. Millersville must take advantage of home court as each of the last five matches are on the road and include trips to four teams currently in PSAC Tournament contention. 
• At 5-4 in PSAC play, the Marauders are currently ninth in the overall PSAC standings and third in the Central Division. Only the top eight teams make the postseason, and Millersville trails that last spot by one win.  Millersville suffered a pair of four-set losses last week to likely playoff teams Shippensburg and West Chester. 
• In their last match, the Marauders defeated Cheyney 3-0 and totaled a season-high 19 services aces including nine from Erin Harman. Millersville leads the PSAC with 2.02 service aces per set. Courtney Turocy ranks third in the PSAC in aces per set, and Harman ranks fourth.
• Harman also ranks fourth in the league in kills, and her .198 hitting percentage is the best of her career. She has vaulted all the way to third on Millersville's career kills list and trails hall of famer Jennie Rohrbaugh by just 10 for second place. To catch Abby Hafer's all-time record, Harman would need to average 19 kills over her final 11 regular season matches.
