Strong Serving Leads to Broncos' Sweep of Stanislaus

POMONA, Calif. – With 11 service aces sparking a well-rounded team effort on offense, Cal Poly Pomona volleyball secured a 3-0 home sweep against Cal State Stanislaus Saturday.
 
Hannah Harrer helped the Broncos' feature a balanced attack as she totaled 11 kills of her own. Alina Smith and Nicoletta Stork combined for a total of 40 assists while Smith led the serving efforts with four aces. With the win, CPP improves to 3-2 overall and 1-1 in the California Collegiate Athletic Association (CCAA).
 
With a small lead early in the first set, Stork and Smith combined on a point with Smith assisting a Stork kill to push CPP's lead to 10-7. On the next point, Smith lined a service ace in the back row. That forced a Warriors' timeout, which was followed by yet another Smith ace.
 
The Broncos led 24-16 at one point in the first frame and after Stanislaus rallied for four-consecutive points, CPP closed out the 25-20 result with a Harrer kill.
 
With the second-set score tied at 17-17, Harrer provided a pair of key kills and then Alexa Hasen used a Smith assist to finish the 25-19 result in that frame.
 
The Warriors held a lead through the early portion of the third set but CPP put together a stretch of service aces, including three in a row rom Stork, to retake the lead from the visiting squad. The Broncos' built a 20-16 lead and despite a late rally from Stanislaus to cut the advantage to 24-23, Harrer provided the decisive kill off a Smith assist.

CPP will return to action Wednesday with a 7 p.m. match at UC San Diego. Because of renovations to Kellogg Gym, the Sept. 19 and Sept. 20 matches will be played at Darlene May Gym.
