In a North Coast Athletic Conference battle Wednesday evening inside Branch Rickey Arena, The College of Wooster jumped out in the first set and never looked back in the conference victory over Ohio Wesleyan University. The Scots swept all three sets by scores of 25-14, 25-16, 25-14.

Junior KateLynn Riley produced another solid offensive performance, leading the team with 15 kills and no errors on 25 attempts for a .600 hitting percentage, while racking up five service aces, tying her career-best she established one week ago against Oberlin. Senior Abbie Casey also had a big night, tallying 13 kills with just two errors on 23 attempts for a .478 hitting percentage, along with freshman setter Lizzi Beal, who dished out 35 assists in the straight-set victory.

Senior libero Ali Drushal led a balanced defensive effort for Wooster against the Battling Bishops (5-14, 3-3 NCAC), as she collected 14 digs. Senior Megan Earle racked up 12 digs, while sophomore Abby Jensen finished with 11 digs, respectively.

The Scots (11-9, 5-2 NCAC) look to continue their winning ways this Friday, as they play host to Hiram College (11-12, 6-2 NCAC) in a key conference match with the Terriers inside Timken Gymnasium at 7 p.m.
