BALTIMORE – Ammaarah Williams slammed a match-high ten kills to lead the Coppin State volleyball team to a 3-0 (25-23, 25-23, 25-23) sweep at Morgan State on Friday night, clinching its second MEAC Regular Season Title in the last three seasons. The Eagles now stand at 21-9 overall and 12-2 in league play.
 
Inside the Numbers

• Williams hit .222 for the match with ten kills on 27 swings while adding eight digs.
• Hope Casel and Yaniris Miller-Green added eight kills apiece, followed by Ahzhi Coleman with six and Geraldyn Palacios with five.
• Andrea Tsvetanova assisted on 27 of the teams' 38 kills and added three aces to up her NCAA-leading total to 90 on the season.
• Ashley Roman also led all players with ten digs while defensive specialists Genesis Hernandez and Kennedy Beatty added two aces each.

How it Happened

• It was a traditional rivalry game as Coppin was unable to pull away from the Bears despite holding large leads throughout.
• The Eagles led, 20-16 in the opening set, but Morgan rallied for three-straight points.  Coppin did not let the score get tied as the Eagles got all their final four points of MSU errors.
• With the second set tied at 12-12, Coppin went on a 5-0 run with four-straight kills from Miller-Green, Williams and Palacios.
• Morgan came back to within, 20-19 before Palacios recorded a kill before an ace from Gabi Theut. The hosts once again battled back to a one-point deficit before making a pair of service errors.
• CSU got out to a 5-0 lead in the third, and as many as 14-5, but its archival came back and found itself trailing just 24-23 before Casel clinched the match with a kill.

Up Next: Coppin earned the No. 1 seed in next weekend's MEAC Tournament and will take on South Carolina State in the First Round on Friday, November 18 at 11:30 am.
