Volleyball Sweeps Storm At Home, Stays Tied Atop East Division

It was Youth Day/Camper Day/Team Signing/Alumni Day/Family Day for Ashland University's volleyball team on Saturday (Sept. 28) night at the Sherrill Hudson Court at Kates Gymnasium, and all the groups on hand were treated to a 3-0 (25-17, 25-23, 25-14) Eagles win over Lake Erie.
 
Ashland improves to 8-4 overall and 2-1 in the Great Midwest Athletic Conference, and is tied with Walsh atop the East Division early-season standings. The Storm is 2-10, 0-4.
 
The Eagle defense kept Lake Erie to a team hitting percentage of .137 – the fifth time Ashland has stymied a team to that percentage or less in 2024.
