Yuma, AZ – The Indian Hills Volleyball team made quick work of its opponents on day two of the AWC Tournament hosted by Arizona Western College. The Warriors swept both the College of Southern Nevada and Scottsdale Community College (AZ) in straight sets.

The Warriors are now winners of six consecutive matches and have swept four opponents on the year.

"Total group effort today," stated head coach Lyndsey Michel. "High energy. High enthusiasm. Big wins. Scottsdale will be a strong team for sure. We served exceptionally well and just kept them out of system. If we keep serving the way we did today, it'll be hard to lose."

The Warriors started strong in its opening match vs. Southern Nevada and never looked back the rest of the day. Indian Hills built an early 12-7 lead before finishing off the Coyotes 25-17 in the opening set. The next two sets belonged to Indian Hills from start to finish. The Warriors led by as many as 15 in the second set and 14 in the third set, winning 25-10 and 25-9, respectively.

As Michel noted throughout the day, the Warrior service was firing from all cylinders in the opening match. Four different Warriors connected on a service ace, including five from Brooke Amann (Woodstock, IL/South Dakota State) and four from Precious Daley (Des Moines, IA/Roosevelt).

The Warriors hit an astounding .524 hitting percentage in the second set as Haleigh Hadley (Gilbert, IA/Iowa State), Jarolin de los Santos (Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic/Luis Munoz Rivera), and Jenna Vallee (Pornichet, France/Lycee Aristide Briand) teamed up for three kills apiece in the set. In total, the Warriors hit .377 throughout the match vs. the Coyotes. Hennesys Lalane (Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic/Colegio Luis Munox Rivera) distributed 31 assists for the offense.

In match two vs. Scottsdale, the Warriors proved that its lineup from top to bottom is capable of scoring form the serve as Vallee and Lalane each posted four service aces while Anja Vranic (Belgrade, Serbia/Sports Gymnasium) added three. Indian Hills topped the Fighting Artichokes 25-16, 25-23, and 25-14.

Hadley and Daley combined for 17 kills throughout the match while Daley and de los Santos teamed up at the net for 10 total blocks.
