WINONA, Minn. – The #8 Winona State volleyball team defeated Minot State 3-0 this evening at McCown Gymnasium, home of WNB Financial Court, to the delight of a home crowd on Parents Night.

Winona State (23-3, 14-3 NSIC) swept Minot State (1-22, 1-16 NSIC) by scores of 25-8, 25-18, 25-21. Fourteen different Warriors saw action on the floor in a lopsided affair.

WSU dominated the first set, which included two separate runs of nine and 10 points. The Warriors hit for an astounding 0.542 hitting percentage while holding the Beavers to a -0.111 hitting percentage. Winona State was led by Megan Flom's 5 kills in the set, which put her 10 away from 1,000 career kills. Bre Maloney dished out 12 assists, four of which were to Sidney Paulson and Madison Rizner.

Joe Getzin was able to utilize his deep bench in sets two and three, where the Warriors controlled the second set with ease. The third set was a back-and-forth battle, but an 8-0 run by WSU after trailing 17-19 put them in the driver's seat to win the set and match.

Six different Warriors recorded five or more kills as Lydia Lange led all players with six. Kami Knutsen dished out a career-high 16 assists on the evening, and Becca Pagel garnered 12 digs leading a balanced effort on the defensive end.
