MEMPHIS-The Christian Brothers University Lady Bucs claimed their third straight win Tuesday night as they swept Union in three sets at Canale Arena.

The Lady Bucs (6-7, 4-4 GSC) set the tone early with a dominant performance in the first set.

CBU won the second set 25-17, and they completed the sweep with a 25-23 win in the third set.

Gillis collected a career-high seven aces for the match, tied for the fifth-most in a match in school history. She added nine kills, four digs and three blocks to collect a match-high 17.5 points. Maggie Sorensen (St. Louis, Mo./Ursuline Academy) added nine kills and six digs, hitting .350. Mary Kathryn Miller (Fulton, Ky./Fulton City HS) pounded seven kills while hitting .462.
