Volleyball blanks Canisius to even 2007 record
Bearcats win second straight match to move to .500

Box Score

KENT, OHIO -- Sophomore Dawn Lammert (Sussex, Wisc.) posted a career-high 11 kills and a .500 hitting percentage to go along with a team-high seven blocks to lead Binghamton University volleyball to a three-game match win over Canisius Friday at the Kent State Invitational.

"It was a nice team effort," said ninth-year head coach Glenn Kiriyama. "We were able to keep them off balance with our serve and really keep the ball in play with our digs. It was nice to see us put things together and deliver a very effiecient all-around performance."

Senior captain Kathleen Schauer (Littleton, Colo.) contributed eight kills with only one error on 18 attempts (.389) as the Bearcats downed the Golden Griffins for the second time this season with set scores of 30-18, 30-20, and 30-19. In all, six Bearcats recorded at least six kills and three had double-digits in digs.

Binghamton will take on host Kent State and Youngstown State in the conclusion of the Kent State Invitational on Saturday.

Game Notes: Binghamton now leads the all-time series 6-3.
