PITTSBURGH, Pa. - The University of Dayton women's volleyball improved their record to 24-3 and 13-1 in the Atlantic 10, earning a 3-0 (25-17, 25-19, 25-17) sweep against the Duquesne Dukes on Sunday at the AJ Palumbo Center.

"I thought we did a solid job defensively in transition. We played pretty good defense as well," head coach Kelly Sheffield said. "We could have sided-out at better, but defensively and transition wise it was a solid day for us."

All-American middle blocker Linsday Fletemier led the pace for Dayton. She had 13 kills on 19 attempts for a .526. She also led the Flyers with three solo blocks against the Dukes.

Junior middle blocker Amanda Cowdrey posted 10 kills and 11 digs for her 13th double-double of the season. Outside hitter Rachel Krabacher tallied 13 digs, two solo blocks and two service aces.

Freshman libero Paige Vargas had a team-leading 17 digs for the Red and Blue. Setter Kacie Hausfeld had 18 assists while freshman Hannah Clancy had 13.
