Hartford, Conn. - The Providence College volleyball team defeated Hartford, 3-1 on Wednesday, October 31. The Friars defeated the Hawks by the scores of 30-28, 24-30, 30-26, and 30-27. With its third straight win, Providence improves its record to 18-9. The 18 wins marks the highest win total since 1997 when the Friars earned 21 victories.

Senior Sarah Fleming (Saint Paul, Minn.) led the Friars to a 3-1 victory over Hartford registering a double-double in kills (16) and digs (12). Junior Jeanette Toney (Brooklyn, N.Y.) had another solid match with 14 kills and six blocks.

Sophomore Abby Majewski (Sunderland, Mass.) rounded out four Friars in double-figures with 12 kills. Junior setter Sara Sheehan (West Chester, Pa.) recorded 47 assists and six digs in the four game victory.

Head Coach Margot Royer. "We tried some new defensive alignments tonight and the girls really bought into the system. We dug some really tough hits which helped us transition to offense. I was also happy with our service game this evening as we limited our errors. Also, when we got the chance to hit the ball everyone swung aggressively and it paid off for us."

Providence will travel to New Britain, Conn. on Wednesday, November 7 for a match with Central Connecticut State University. The game is scheduled to start at 7:00 p.m.
