Lott, Seahawks Sweep Chanticleers, Stags In Season Openers

WILMINGTON, North Carolina – Sophomore Nicole Lott totaled 24 kills in two matches to lead UNCW to a sweep of Coastal Carolina and Fairfield on Friday at the Hilton Garden Inn Wilmington Mayfaire Classic at Hanover Hall.

The Seahawks (2-0) opened their season with a 3-1 win over rival Coastal Carolina (0-1) before sweeping Fairfield (0-2), 3-0, who played in the NCAA tournament last fall after winning the MAAC Championship.
 
In the opener, Lott and junior Meredith Peacock recorded 14 kills apiece as UNCW rallied from a 1-all tie after two sets with a pair of convincing wins (25-16, 25-14) in the third and fourth sets. Sophomore setter Alyssa Desjardins doled out 22 assists and completed a double-double with 10 digs.

In the fourth and final set against the Chanticleers, the Seahawks recorded four of their 10 blocks and held Coastal to a -.030 hitting average.

In the night cap, the Seahawks again turned up the defense, out-hitting Fairfield, .289-.044. Lott held match-high honors with 10 kills while Morgan Kine added seven kills and eight digs. Junior libero Lindsay Hartmann collected a match-high nine digs in the sweep.

The Seahawks tackle NC State on Saturday at 7:30 p.m., when they next retake the court.
