Hozak earns 700th career win in Bearcats sweep against Geneva

LATROBE, Pa. (Oct. 11)- Saint Vincent head women's volleyball coach Sue Hozak earned her 700th career victory in the Bearcats 3-0 sweep against Geneva on Saturday afternoon in the Robert S. Carey Center.

Hozak is one of the top-10 winningest active coaches in the entire country.

The Bearcats (5-9, 4-4 PAC) are now on a two-game PAC winning streak after sweeping the Golden Tornadoes (4-17, 1-7 PAC) in straight sets by scores of 25-16, 25-22, and 25-22 to cruise to the sweep.

Meegan Williams continued her double-double streak with 12 kills and 13 digs to lead Saint Vincent. Bailey Green added 17 assists, while Dakota Hershberger recorded 6 kills and 11 digs. 

Brenna McCracken recorded 11 digs and Madie Eagler totaled 10 assists, while Aubrey Siwula recorded six kills for the Bearcats in the win.

Lauren Fox recorded a match-high five blocks, while Vivian Wirth added three of her own.

It was back-and-forth through the middle portions of the opening set as the Bearcats held a slight 14-13 lead in the set. SVC went on a quick 9-1 run that put the Bearcats up by a score of 23-14. After back-to-back Geneva points, the Bearcats scored two consecutive points of their own on two Geneva attack errors to give the Bearcats the set win (25-16) and a 1-0 lead in the match.

In set two, it was much of the same story. Both teams traded points back-and-forth, but this time Geneva held a slight 20-19 lead in the late portions of the set. SVC went on to score the next five consecutive points on five straight Geneva errors to put SVC up 24-20. Geneva scored two more points, before an attack error allowed the Bearcats to win the set (25-22), taking a 2-0 lead in the match.

SVC controlled the entirety of the third set. Saint Vincent went on to take a 24-18 lead, but the GT's had one last effort in them. Geneva scored four straight points, cutting the lead to 24-22, before a kill from Siwula won the set for Saint Vincent (25-22) and the match 3-0.

Saint Vincent totaled nine blocks in the win, while scooping up 71 digs as well.

The Bearcats return to action on Wednesday, October 15 with a trip to W&J for a PAC matchup. The match is scheduled to begin at 7 p.m. in Washington on Wednesday night.
