Toms River, NJ - OCC Women's Volleyball won their 2nd straight match and 5th overall following a 3-0 sweep of the visiting Brookdale CC Jersey Blues on Monday (9/23).
The Vikings set the tone early in this match with an aggressive 1st set, and mostly maintained it for the duration of the contest. Ocean sophomore middle hitter Abby Szuba led the charge, with a team-leading 12 points and 11 kills on the night, while sophomore libero Anna Malandro dominated defensively, seemingly everywhere at once in Ocean's 2nd set, and then making a diving return in the 3rd set that electrified the home crowd. Malandro's 22 digs this match led all players on the court by nearly double digits.
"Great defense by Anna tonight, and I loved Abby's aggressive attacks in the 1st set," remarked OCC Women's Volleyball Head Coach Alexis Whitney.
The Vikings return to the court on Wednesday, September 25, when they willl host the Owls of Union College of NJ at 6:30 P.M.
