Beaver Falls, PA– Geneva volleyball heads to the ECAC South Region Finals today at 4 p.m. after defeating McDaniel at Carnegie Mellon University this morning with a final score of 3-1 (19-25, 28-26, 25-10, 25-22).
“Strong serving made up for some inconsistent passing,” said co-head coach Curt Conser.
“Different people stepped up throughout the match.”

Marissa Naples (Cortland, OH/Lakeview) hit 14 kills, Erica Hughes (North Jackson, OH/Jackson Milton) hit 13, Grace Hayes (Westminster, MD/Westminster) put down 12, and Erin Smith (Sewickley, PA/Ambridge) tallied 11 kills.
