MADISON, S.D.\u00a0 (UJ<\/a>)\u00a0 —\u00a0<\/strong>The number one-ranked University of Jamestown women’s volleyball team held off a stiff challenge by Dakota State (S.D.) University Wednesday night, defeating the Trojans 25-23, 25-14, and 25-23.<\/p>\n

Jamestown is now 23-1 this season while Dakota State falls to 11-6.<\/p>\n

The Trojans got off to a quick start, winning the first six points of set one on the way to a 13-8 lead. Dakota State’s largest advantage of the set came at 18-13, and following a DSU attack error, UJ took the next four points to cut the lead to one. Corina Huff<\/a> (SR\/Breezy Point, Minn.)’s kill gave the Jimmies a 21-20 lead, their first of the set. Kalli Hegerle<\/a> (JR\/West Fargo, N.D.) and Jayla Ritter<\/a> (JR\/Forest Lake, Minn.) posted back-to-back kills to make it 24-22, and a service error by DSU ended the set.<\/p>\n

Jamestown took command in the second set, racing out to a 13-4 lead after an Anna Holen<\/a> (JR\/LaMoure, N.D.) ace and Taylor Sabinash<\/a> (JR\/Kensal, N.D.) kill. UJ led by 11 twice in the set and Dakota State did not get closer than seven (13-6).<\/p>\n

In set three, DSU rallied from 16-11 to cut the Jimmies’ lead to 16-14. Jamestown won seven of the next ten points to open up a six-point edge, but the Trojans took five straight to make it 23-22. A DSU attack error ended the run, but a kill on the next point gave the Trojans another chance. Logan Sherman<\/a> (FR\/Marshall, Minn.) finished off the match for UJ with a kill set up by Jackie Meiklejohn<\/a> (JR\/Dickey, N.D.).<\/p>\n

Sabinash had 10 kills and hit .421 on 19 attempts. Ritter added six kills and Holen and Hegerle finished with five kills each.<\/p>\n

Megan Gaffaney<\/a> (JR\/Jamestown, N.D.) had 19 assists and Meiklejohn 13. Holen had 23 digs, followed by Sydney Ellingson<\/a> (SR\/Langdon, N.D.) with 20 and Hannah Schiele<\/a> (JR\/Jamestown, N.D.) with 10. Ritter and Holen both had three total blocks.<\/p>\n
