VOLLEYBALL HOSTS FINAL HOME GAME OF THE SEASON AGAINST AQUINAS

ROCHESTER HILLS, MI – The Warriors (4-25, 1-17) will play host one last time, encountering the Aquinas College Saints (27-7, 14-4) at Garth Pleasant Arena for the second to last game of their season. It will be no small task; the Saints sit second in the WHAC standings. The silver lining rests in the majority of the Saints' losses coming recently, and the Warriors will look to exploit this opportunity.

The Warriors will bank on good defensive play, their strength throughout the season, propelled by senior Gabby Costello who places fifth in the WHAC in digs per set. Seniors Darcy Benin and Olivia Pannecouk are ready to be a menace at the net.

And they will need to be - senior Abbi Perkins for the Saints gives teams all sorts of problems with her right arm. She is fourth in the WHAC in both kills per set and hitting percentage. Junior Lydia Harper is one of the premier talents in the league. At six foot two inches, Harper plays setter for the Saints but is also a potent force at the net.

The Warriors look to show up for their fans one last time, as the Warrior faithful do as well.
