September 26, 2014

The NJCAA #17/FCSAA #4 ÌìÑĺ£½ÇÉçÇø Saints (13-2, 2-0 MFC) kept the momentum rolling on Thursday night in Gainesville, defeating Florida State College-Jacksonville 3-1 in commanding fashion.

ÌìÑĺ£½ÇÉçÇø jumped out in the first set and controlled the action, finishing strong for a 25-14 victory.  The second set was a different story as the Blue Wave turned the tide with a strong 25-20 win to knot it up at one set apiece.

From there it was all ÌìÑĺ£½ÇÉçÇø.  Ruth Harrington and Savannah Young led the attack as the Saints cruised to a 25-13 set four victory, and then took the wind completely out of the FSC-J (9-9, 1-1 MFC) sails with a 25-11 set four win to clinch the match.

Farah Rajaee started the fourth set with 12 straight service points, setting a Santa Fe record.  SF led 16-1 at one point and cruised to the win from there.

Harrington led ÌìÑĺ£½ÇÉçÇø with 10 kills and four blocks, Amber Hendry had her second straight productive game, finishing with nine kills and three aces, Farah Rajaee had 35 assists, and Ann-Lorrayne Bzoch had 16 digs.

ÌìÑĺ£½ÇÉçÇø hit .200 for the math and held the Blue Wave to a .073 hitting percentage
