WEST HAVEN, Conn. (October 1, 2010) – Freshman middle Katie Jackson (Cherry Creek, Colo.) collected eight kills and senior libero Chelsie Kohout (Harrison Township, Mich.) piled up 23 digs on Friday night, but the Franklin Pierce University volleyball team fell, 3-0, on the road against New Haven in Northeast-10 Conference play at Charger Gymnasium. Senior outside hitter Sara Malmlov chalked up a double-double with 17 kills and 16 digs to lead the way for New Haven.

Jackson led the way for Franklin Pierce with her eight kills and senior outside hitter Christina Calderon (Tombstone, Ariz.) added five of her own, but for the most part, the Ravens offense was stifled by the New Haven defense. Franklin Pierce committed just 15 errors over 114 attacks, but could also manage only 25 kills to hit .088 for the evening, as New Haven racked up 68 digs as a team. Senior setter Pam Walker (Chino Hills, Calif.) finished with 20 assists for Franklin Pierce.

On the defensive side of the ball, Kohout was the only Raven to finish in double digits in digs, though Walker and freshman outside hitter Lauren Miller (Alexandria, Ind.) finished with eight digs each. Calderon, Jackson and graduate student outside hitter Kelsey Painter (Glendale, Ariz.) each tallied two block assists.

For New Haven, Malmlov ran up her 17 kills while hitting .277 as she took 47 swings, more than twice as many as any other Charger. Sophomore middle Tymika Duncan led the way in efficiency, as she hit .438 while tallying nine kills. The duo worked off the set of junior Chelsey Alpough, who racked up a match-best 37 assists.

The New Haven back row piled up big numbers defensively, as Malmlov was one of three players to record over 15 digs. The effort was led by junior libero Heather Ladao, who amassed 28 digs, while junior outside hitter Janeeka Benson added 17 more. Benson, Duncan and freshman middle Amber Cannady each collected two block assists.

The Ravens return to the court on Saturday, Oct. 2, when they return home to host Southern Connecticut State in a Northeast-10 Conference contest. The match is scheduled for 7 p.m. at the Fieldhouse in Rindge, N.H.
