THE PLAYER
The night belonged to
Becca Yohe, who reached 1,000 career kills with Erskine behind a 22-kill performance. The 22 kills are Yohe's joint-most since her freshman season and the Summerville native also added in 12 digs, 3 assists, 3 blocks, and an ace to help lead the Fleet to another victory. Yohe picked up her fifth double-double of the season and the 16th of her career on a memorable accolade-filled night.
THE TEAM
Erskine hit .212 (53 K / 22 E / 146 A) for the match, and held Lees-McRae to just a .139 hitting percentage, largely due to a season-best 10 blocks from the Fleet.
WHAT'S NEXT?Â
Erskine comes back home for a three-match home stand, which starts with a non-conference tilt against Clinton College (9-5) on Tuesday at 7 p.m.
