Tigerettes Sweep Miles in SIAC action

Tuskegee moves to 12-8 in conference play with one match to play

TUSKEGEE, Ala. | After two weeks off, the Tuskegee University volleyball team returned to form with a 3-0 (25,15,25-22,26-24) victory over Miles College in Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (SIAC) action on Monday night at Chappie James Arena.
 
Sophomore setter Morgan Scrivens posted her first double-double with 10 digs and 33 assists, while freshman Jamiah Breda-Nixon posted 17 kills while hitting .278 on the night to lead Tuskegee (16-11, 12-8 SIAC).
 
Reigning SIAC Offensive Player of the Week, Pamela Allen added 12 kills while hitting .526; while Donovan Wingfield added eight kills in the victory.
 
Defensively, the Tigerettes combined for 45 digs, paced by Zahria Radford with 14, while Nailah Pruitt added seven. They also added eight service aces, with Scrivens and Breda-Nixon each contributing two.
 
Janae Graham, the nation's leader in service aces, added one to her total.
 
As a team, Tuskegee hit .231 with 44 kills (104 total attempts), while holding Miles to .062 and 19 kills (81 total attempts).
 
The Tigerettes controlled much of the match as they jumped ahead early in all three sets, only to see Miles rally back in the third to try and force a fourth set. However, a pair of kills by Wingfield and a kill from Breda-Nixon put the match away.
 
Tuskegee returns to action on Thursday night in a key SIAC match-up against Albany State – the regular season finale for the Tigerettes. With a win, Tuskegee will leap Stillman into the second seed from the West.
