SHIPPENSBURG, Pa. – The Shippensburg University volleyball team secured another conference win on Saturday afternoon with a 3-1 victory over Lock Haven at Heiges Field House to wrap up 'Dig Pink' weekend. Set scores were 25-18, 22-25, 25-21 and 25-21.
 
Shippensburg (11-10, 4-3 PSAC East) had three players with double-digit kills. Reigning Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) Defensive Division Athlete of the Week senior Oyinda Agbale posted her ninth double-digit kill match of the season with 13 kills and a block solo. Agbale hit an efficient .478 from the floor and committed only two errors. Fellow senior Rachel Verhoef added 11 kills, a block solo and two block assists while hitting .400 from the floor.
 
Sophomore Maddie Clabaugh had her first career double-double with 10 kills and 12 digs while adding a block solo. Sophomore Emily Gardner, coming back from injury, had a good night with eight kills, a block assist and a dig. Senior Jackie Sterenberg added seven kills and two digs.
 
Freshman Kearstin Davis delivered a team-high 45 assists, her fifth 40+ assist match of the season. Freshman Erica Lampus had 21 digs, her sixth match with 20 or more digs this season, and has now had three consecutive matches with 20+ digs.
 
Lock Haven (1-17, 1-6) was led by Gabriela Fialova. The Raiders hit .242 compared to .150 for the Bald Eagles. The teams combined for 27 service errors: 11 for LHU and 16 for SU.
 
The first set was back and forth, and it wasn't until the Raiders went on a 5-2 run late in the set that secured the first-set victory. LHU came back in the second set and took the lead after being tied, 15-15. The Bald Eagles went on an 8-2 run, but the Raiders fought back and reduced the deficit to 24-22, but was not enough as Fialova's kill secured the set for Lock Haven.
 
In the third set, the Raiders were looking to find a way to go on a run, and sophomore Kelsie Baus provided it with two service aces that were followed by kills from Gardner, Agbale, and Clabaugh to create set point. A block from Verhoef and Gardner gave the Raiders the third set.
 
The fourth set saw 10 tie scores and five lead changes. The set was tied up at 21-21 and a service ace from Davis and back-to-back kills from Agbale set up match point. A hard kill by Gardner secured the victory for the Raiders.
 
The Raiders will travel to Jefferson on Tuesday for a non-conference matchup at 6 p.m.
