WILMINGTON, Del. -- The Felician volleyball team erased a 29-21 Game 2 deficit, keying a 3-0 (30-15, 36-34, 30-28) CACC interdivision victory over host Goldey-Beacom College on Saturday afternoon at Joseph West Jones Hall. It is the first victory for Felician over Goldey-Beacom in six all-time meetings.

The Golden Falcons (2-14, 2-6) hit .333 in winning Game 1, but looked headed for a split before saving eight consecutive game points. Game 2 then saw each team take multiple leads before Felician finally put away the highest-scoring game in school history. The Lightning led in the early-stages of Game 3 before Felician took a 19-18 lead and won the key points down the stretch.

Freshman libero Erica Moore (Ridgefield Park, NJ) set a school record with 35 digs. Teammate Nicole Niedzwicki held the previous mark of 30 in a five-game match last season. Dee Dee Smith (Monticello, NY) matched a season high with 22 kills while hitting .417, and Nicole Degenhardt (Secaucus, NJ) had 38 assists and seven digs. Kendra Russell topped GBC (3-14, 2-5) with 16 kills.
