Bates College Bobcats Enjoy Strong 3-0 Showing at Maine Maritime Academy in Final Road Contest of Season

Bates College, playing its final road contest of the season, closed out the away slate in style as the Bobcats brushed off Maine Maritime Academy, 3-0, in Wednesday night women's volleyball action.

The victory snaps a six-match slide for the Bobcats (6-15) as the garnet and white recorded scores of 25-23, 25-10, and 26-24 in the three-set sweep. The effort marks Bates' first shutout performance since sweeping both Regis College and Smith College back on Sept. 10 in Northampton, Mass.

MMC sees its nine-game winning come to an abrupt halt as the Mariners fall to 18-3 with the setback.

Alyssa Lowther (So.-Wyckoff, N.J.) the Bobcats' leader on the year in kills, topped the squad in its latest outing with 10 kills. Julia Neumann (So.-Norwell, Mass.) followed with seven kills and a stellar hitting percentage of .538 (0 E, 13 TA). Ami Evans (Fy.-Honolulu, Hawaii) also enjoyed a seven-kill performance for road team, complementing her three aces and five digs.

Emma Eide (Sr.-Ramsey, N.J.) dished out 18 assists, to go along with six digs and a trio of service aces. Ellie Asada (Fy.-Honolulu, Hawaii) paced the victors with nine digs and four aces.

The Bobcats return to Alumni Gym this Friday night (7:00 p.m.) for a NESCAC home match vs. Amherst College.
