(uj.edu<\/a>)\u00a0 The 11th-ranked University of Jamestown volleyball team faced a tough challenge Monday night in the form of No. 2 Northwestern (Iowa) College.<\/p>\n

The Red Raiders maintained their perfect season, improving to 23-0 overall and 11-0 in the Great Plains Athletic Conference with a 32-30, 25-17, 25-23 win over the Jimmies at Harold Newman Arena.<\/p>\n

UJ had the biggest lead of a back-and-forth first set at 8-4, but Northwestern scored six of the next seven points to take an 10-9 lead. The teams traded leads and momentum appeared to be shifting towards the Raider side at 22-19. The Jimmies rallied for the next four points and a 23-22 edge. Tied at 30, Northwestern captured the final two points of the set.<\/p>\n

The Jimmies were not able to close the gap in the second set after cutting Northwestern’s lead to 16-13. Four straight points by the Raiders made it 20-13, and Jamestown could only get within five points for the rest of the set.<\/p>\n

In set three, UJ led 10-4 and 12-6 until Northwestern slowly made a comeback. The Jimmies eventually trailed by two at 18-16, but bounced back to claim at 23-22 lead. A kill for the tying point and two Jamestown attack errors provided the margin of victory.<\/p>\n

Jamestown (20-4, 8-2 GPAC) lost for just the first time at home in six matches.<\/p>\n

Corina Ruud<\/a> (JR\/Breezy Point, Minn.) led the offense with 10 kills, followed by Britta Knudson<\/a> (SR\/Bismarck, N.D.) with nine and Jordan Thomas<\/a> (SR\/Pingree, N.D.) with seven.<\/p>\n

Miranda Lowman<\/a> (SR\/Mandan, N.D.) had 17 assists and Jackie Meiklejohn<\/a> (SO\/Dickey, N.D.) 12, just missing out on a double-double with nine digs.<\/p>\n

Sydney Ellingson<\/a> (JR\/Langdon, N.D.) (15) and Hannah Schiele<\/a> (SO\/Jamestown, N.D.) (14) each finished in double figures for digs. Taylor Sabinash<\/a> (SO\/Kensal, N.D.) recorded four total blocks, including two solo, and Ruud had three block assists.<\/p>\n
