Tribe Defeats Hampton, 3-0, For Second Straight Victory

WILLIAMSBURG, Va. - The William and Mary volleyball team earned its second consecutive victory with a 3-0 (30-19, 30-22, 30-10) triumph against non-conference foe Hampton on Tuesday night in Williamsburg.

As a team, W&M (10-13, 6-9) hit a season-high .451 (49-8-91). Individually, the Tribe was led by sophomore Molly Bohman, who recorded 12 kills on a .611 (12-1-18) attack percentage. Freshman Lauren Powell nearly tallied a double-digit kill total with nine, as she hit .750 (9-0-12). Freshman Katie McCarney also had a strong performance offensively, totaling eight put-aways on .571 (8-0-14) hitting. Defensively, senior Kathleen Hawley provided 14 digs, bringing her career total to 436, which is the second-highest single-season total in Tribe history. She set the single-season record with 616 digs last season.

Hampton utilized a 5-0 run early in the opening set to take an 8-3 advantage. The Green and Gold responded, however, and gradually chipped away at the lead, evening the score at 12 following a kill by McCarney. The teams remained close with W&M up by just one, 18-17, before the Tribe exploded on a 9-1 run, capped by a Lindsey Pflugner ace, to take a commanding 27-18 lead. The Tribe sealed the set with an Abbi Owens put-away. In the initial frame, the College hit .481 (15-2-27) as a team. Pflugner paced the squad individually, totaling five kills on .556 (5-0-9) hitting.

The Tribe found itself trailing, 4-5, in the early portion of the second game but rattled off a 6-0 run to take a 10-5 lead. The Pirates called a timeout and cut the lead to three, but the Green and Gold put together a 5-0 spurt, capped by an Owens kill, to go ahead, 16-8. While HU narrowed the margin to five points, 20-15, the Tribe maintained a comfortable lead throughout the remainder of the set. McCarney led W&M in game two, recording five kills on .500 (5-0-10) hitting. Sophomore Kim Mount also came up big, dishing out 15 assists.

With the score knotted at three in the final frame, W&M went on a 12-1 run, punctuated by a Bohman kill, to take a 14-3 advantage. Ahead by 10 points, 18-8, the Tribe put together another impressive burst, tallying 11 of the next 12 points to go ahead 29-9. Powell closed out the set and the match with her seventh put-away of the stanza. In addition to her seven kills, Powell hit .700 (7-0-10) with no errors. Bohman also performed well, registering six kills on a .667 (6-0-9) attack percentage. As a team, the College hit .621 (18-0-29) in the final game.

The Tribe will close out its regular-season home slate with a match against Virginia Commonwealth on Friday at 7 p.m.
