Tigers Sweep Birmingham-Southern and Austin College Sunday

Box Score 1 | Box Score 2

Conway, Arkansas - The Trinity Tigers, ranked 15th in the nation, continued their run in the second Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference West-Central Tournament Sunday with a 21-25, 25-20, 25-15, 25-18 victory over the Birmingham-Southern Panthers at Hendrix College.

Trinity improved to 18-6 overall, and stands at 8-2 in SCAC play. Birmingham-Southern results do not count in SCAC standings because the Panthers are in transition from the NCAA Division I to Division III.

Tiger senior middle blocker Ginger Haley hit .571 in the match (12 kills, 0 errors, 21 total attacks), along with four blocks. Senior outside hitter Amy Mittelstaedt led the team with 15 kills, and added seven digs. Junior outside hitter Alexis Edwards was the digs leader, with 20.

Junior setter Caiti Troyer accounted for 44 assists, 19 digs, three blocks and two aces. First-year libero Meredith Erwin picked up 18 digs. Senior middle blocker Aly Hazelwood made four blocks. First-year outside hitter Madison McMahon registered 10 kills. Junior defensive specialist Emily Hilliard had two aces and 11 digs.
