Volleyball Drops Non-Conference Finale

ORLANDO, Fla. – Miami upended UNCW in a sweep on Sunday in the final match of the UCF Invitational for both teams in non-conference volleyball action at the UCF Venue.

With the loss, the Seahawks, who went 1-2 against three NCAA Tournament participants on the weekend, closed out their non-conference schedule with a mark of 2-7 while the Hurricanes moved to 7-2.

Miami broke away late in the first set, scoring six of the final nine points of the set for a 25-21 win. In the second set, UM opened a 15-7 lead on a kill by Yardimici and never looked back. In the final set, UNCW closed to within 16-15 following a kill by Katie Lanz, but the Hurricanes rattled off seven of the next eight points to build a 23-16 lead.

Grace Melnick led the Seahawks with seven kills while Brooke Hanshumaker and Caitlyn Callahan added six apiece.

Defensively, Sydney Thaxton totaled nine digs to lead UNCW while Callahan had five total blocks.

Miami's Peyman Yardimici held match-high honors with 11 kills as the Hurricanes out-hit the Seahawks, .228 to .086.

UNCW opens Colonial Athletic Association play on Sept. 17-18 at William & Mary.
