Much like two nights ago, the 19th ranked Barton Community College volleyball team served up its' second consecutive straight set sweep Wednesday night at the Barton Gym defeating Pratt Community College (25-8, 25-19, 25-17).
Victors of 12-straight, the Cougars broaden their lead in the Jayhawk Conference to three games at 12-1 and 23-3 overall following Hutchinson's loss to Colby while the Beavers fall to 0-13 in league play and 9-20 on the season. Barton will conclude its' three match homestand Saturday evening hosting Butler Community College while looking to clinch the outright Jayhawk Conference title set for a 6:30 p.m. first serve.
Phoebe Reyes' seven kills on 15 attempts for a .333 attack led eight Cougars recording multiple kills. Mya Thompson led Barton's .266 attack converting on five of her six attempts for a team best .833 percentage while adding the lone solo block.
Ella Rumford set a new season high with six kills off the bench on her 20 swings. Anna Wierzbicki punished the court with six kills on 12 attempts while joining Akeir Scales and Bennie Horsch for team high honors defensively at the net denying two assisted blocks apiece.
Fueling Barton's offense, freshman Elena Stankovic put up a team high 18 assists to finish in double-figures for the 25th time this season with Maurin Reyes adding 14.
