Eagles Dismantle Golden Tornados

BEAVER, Pa.- The #15 Juniata men's volleyball team picked up their second win of the week with a 3-0 (25-18, 25-18, 25-15) victory at Geneva Friday evening. 

Kevin Duffy III (Carlisle, Pa. / Carlisle HS) totaled nine kills while hitting .583 with two solo blocks and four block assists, while Will Phelan (Saegertown, Pa. / Saegertown HS) totaled 12 kills while hitting .563 with four digs and a block assist. Max Cooley (Bethel Park, Pa. / Bethel Park HS) had eight kills while hitting .263 with two digs and a block assist. Austin Goodsel (Corry, Pa. / Fort Leboeuf HS) had 19 assists with an ace and three block assists, while Reese Ganter (Reading, Pa. / Exeter Township HS) had 13 assists and two digs. 

In the first set, Juniata never trailed but didn't really extend their lead until midway through. With the score at 15-13, Cooley tallied a kill, Duffy put down two straight before combining with Goodsel with a block, and Tyler Goldsborough (Reading, Pa. / Exeter Township HS) added an ace to make it 20-13. A service error helped JC to take set one 25-18. Juniata also held the Golden Tornados to a 0.00 hitting percentage. 

Set two saw JC hit a robust .563 in the second set but once again pulled away in the latter part of the set. With the score at 17-14, the Eagles rattled off five straight through kills from Cooley and Phelan and blocks from Duffy and Goodsel. Phelan wrapped up the second set with a kill, 25-18. 

The Eagles came flying out in the third, racing out to an 18-5 lead as they closed the match strong with a 25-15 third set victory. 

Juniata will take on PSU-Behrend at 11:00 and St John Fisher at 1:00.
