MACON, Ga. -- The Chattanooga Mocs volleyball team scored its second conference win in as many days by defeating Mercer 3-0 (25-15, 25-22, 25-17) in Macon, Ga., on Saturday afternoon.

Fresh off a win last night against ETSU, UTC cruised from the first set on and earned the sweep of the Bears in straight sets.

With the win, the Mocs improve to 9-7 overall and 2-1 in the Southern Conference. The loss drops Mercer to 10-6 on the year and 2-2 in the conference.

"I'm so proud of this team and the response and toughness they played with this weekend, especially today," said coach Travis Filar after the match. "It was an extremely quick turnaround getting on the road early this morning after a big win last night to play Mercer who has been playing really well.

"Winning in three sets says a lot about this team and their continued growth."

The offense remained aggressive as they finished with an attacking percentage of .411 and out-killed the opposition 47-41. Six different Mocs recorded at least six kills each. They dished out 44 assists and registered four service aces in the win.

Senior Kirsty Wieser (Lincoln, Neb.) was dominate on offense as she totaled a match-high 15 kills on a .500 hitting percentage. Classmate Allie Davenport (Tyrone, Ga.) finished with seven kills at a .227 clip while sophomore Miranda Elpers (Louisville, Ky.) also finished with seven kills at a .312 percentage.

A trio consisting of Emily Plumlee (Chesapeake, Va.), Eden Murray (Hoschton, Ga.) and Dani Szczepanski (Cincinnati, Ohio) all picked up six kills each while hitting at a combined .533 percentage.

"Our middles in Emily (Plumlee) and Dani (Szczepanski) were super efficient and it was a balanced of an attack as we had all year," added Filar.

The pair of junior setters in Lauren Greenspoon (Houson, Texas) and Madison Begren (Muncie, Ind.) were at it again directing the offense. They combined for 41 of the 44 assists as Greenspoon dished out a match-high 26 and Bergren chipped in with 15 on the day.

"Our serve recieve game today was outstanding and our setters (Lauren and Madison) were superb and did an awesome job running our offense," said Filar.

The defense was sound in all aspects. UTC out-blocked Mercer by a 6.0-1.0 advantage and out-dug the Bears 43-37. Davenport led the way with 14 digs as Elpers (11) and Rachel Petkosh (Merritt Island, Fla.) (9) round out the team-leaders in digs. At the net, Szczepanski totaled four block assists and Wieser finished with three block assists.

Filar noted, "I know Monday we will come to practice and be ready to get better and it'll be great to be back at home this weekend for two more big conference matches."

Chattanooga will be back in action next weekend, Friday Oct. 7 and Saturday Oct. 8, in Maclellan Gym for a pair of conference matchups. They'll take on Wofford on Friday at 6 p.m. and Western Carolina on Saturday at 1 p.m. Coverage of the matches, notes and previews will be available on GoMocs.com leading up to Friday.
