MEMPHIS-The Christian Brothers University Lady Bucs picked up their second consecutive win Friday night at Canale Arena with a three-set sweep of visiting Trevecca Nazarene.

In the first set, neither team could gain separation, as CBU (5-7) led by four points twice but the Trojans (8-4) quickly cut into the lead and took one of their own as late as 20-19. But the Lady Bucs used an Alexis Gillis (Corpus Christi, Texas/Carroll HS) kill and a double-block by Sami Gruse (Lafayette, Ind./Central Catholic HS) and Mary Kathryn Miller (Fulton, Ky./Fulton City HS) to score the final two points and win the set 27-25. In the second set, the Lady Bucs jumped to a quick 10-3 lead they never relinquished, winning the set 25-17. In the third set it was Trevecca who started strong, with the first four points. But the Lady Bucs used an 11-2 burst to turn a 7-5 deficit into a 16-9 lead, holding on to win 25-19 and complete the sweep.

Brinsley Cooper (Rossville, Ind./Rossville HS) pounded 14 kills with four blocks, hitting .360 for the Lady Bucs. Gillis had 11 kills to go with match-bests of 14 digs and four aces, while Brittany Toney (Rockledge, Fla./Rockledge HS) tacked on eight kills and 11 digs. Gruse notched 30 assists and three blocks in two sets, while Jessica Reber (Byron, Ill./Byron HS) collected 10 assists in one set.

Delaney Hearne led TNU with 10 kills. Loren Bennett collected 28 assists, and Katelyn Atkinson added 11 digs.
