ROLLA, Mo. - The Quincy University women's volleyball team extended its winning streak to eight straight matches on Friday night, earning a clean 3–0 sweep over Missouri S&T on the road in Rolla. The victory also marked Quincy's seventh consecutive win in the head-to-head series against the Miners, continuing their dominance in the matchup. With the result, the Hawks improved to 21–5 overall and 10–2 in GLVC play as they march into the final weekend of the regular season. 

The opening frame was a back-and-forth battle, as both teams exchanged points without allowing the other to pull away. Trailing 12–11, Quincy capitalized on three straight S&T errors as part of a four-point run to take a 15–12 lead. The Miners responded with a burst of their own to jump ahead 20–19, but the Hawks closed strong, taking six of the final nine points behind timely kills and a late push from the pin hitters. Quincy claimed the set 25–23, swinging an impressive .385 with 18 kills and just three errors.

Set two mirrored the competitive start of the opener, tied at six early, before the Hawks found separation behind kills from Susanna Beretti and Janelle Pye-Blacknard to go up 11–7. The set turned into a trading of runs, with Quincy producing bursts of four and three points before S&T responded with a five-point run to cut the deficit to 18–14. The Hawks, however, steadied themselves with another late surge, winning the frame 25–18. Quincy hit .342 with 17 kills, once again comfortably outperforming the Miners' .167 attack line.

The final set was another tight exchange early, with neither team able to gain more than a two-point margin. With the Hawks leading 14–12, they broke the set open with a four-point run fueled by kills from multiple attackers. Though the Miners fought to stay within reach, Quincy maintained control, and setter Elena Kasavica sealed the match with a kill to take the set 25–21. Quincy tallied a match-high 20 kills in the frame while hitting .271.

Quincy's offense was the difference-maker, out-killing the Miners 55–39 and hitting a strong .328 as a unit. Both teams finished with three service aces, while S&T held a slight edge in blocks 7–6. Defensively, Quincy posted 52 digs to S&T's 47, maintaining structure against a competitive Miner attack.

Individually, Susanna Beretti was once again the star, producing 20 kills for the fourth straight match while hitting .395 and leading all players with 17 digs. Janelle Pye-Blacknard delivered a double-double performance with 12 kills and 10 digs. Zeynep Cetin was highly efficient in the middle, hitting .462 with seven kills and just one error. Setter Elena Kasavica expertly directed the offense with 48 assists and added eight digs, while also sealing the match with her lone kill of the night. 

Quincy now turns its attention to the final match of the regular season, traveling to St. Louis to face Maryville on Sunday. Both teams have already secured GLVC Tournament berths, but with standings still tightly packed at the top, every late-season result remains crucial. Maryville enters at 15–11 overall and 8–4 in GLVC play, winners of three straight. First serve is set for 3:00 PM from Moloney Arena.
