Fords split at Messiah

MECHANICSBURG, Pa. - The Haverford College volleyball team registered a split in non-conference action at Messiah College Saturday afternoon. The Fords rolled past Lancaster Bible College 3-0 before dropping a 3-2 heartbreaker to the host Falcons later in the day.

Haverford (4-2) overpowered the Chargers (0-6) in the opening contest with a three-game sweep (25-14, 25-12, 25-20). Madison Fuelling led the sound defensive effort with 17 digs while Sarah Brody chipped in with 13.

Many players got involved on the attack as Meg O'Day (16), Keri Godbe (12) and Olivia Coburn-Flynn (10) reached double digits in kills. Olivia Walsh contributed 38 set assists.

The final installment of the tri-match saw the Fords rally twice before narrowly dropping a five-set battle to Messiah (5-2). After suffering a game one loss (25-16), Haverford answered the Falcons in game two. Receiving strong play from Jordan Scolaro, Nina Mutty and Godbe, the Fords registered 13 of final 18 points of the game to turn a 19-13 deficit into a 26-24 victory.

After Messiah once again took the match lead with a victory in game three (24-15), Haverford was able to bounce back from an early deficit in game four to forge a 20-20 tie. Aggressive attacks by Mutty and O'Day led to a 25-23 win and a deciding game five.

The two squads continued to battle in the final game of the day as Haverford held an early advantage before the Falcons rallied for a 15-12 victory.

Mutty spearheaded the attack with 15 kills while Godbe and O'Day tallied 10 each. Fuelling loomed large on defense with 29 digs. Godbe and Mutty helped the cause with 19 and 12, respectively.

Lauren Rees led Messiah with 21 kills.

Opening their Centennial Conference slate  in their next outing, the Fords welcome Dickinson College to Gooding Arena on Sept. 15 at noon followed by a 2 p.m. non-conference contest against Moravian College.
