Women's Volleyball Sweeps Quinnipiac, 3-0

The Crimson also turned in a spectacular offensive performance. Jellin complemented her defensive performance with a match-high 39 assists. Junior outside hitter Erin Denniston had another usual devastating outing against the Braves, recording double digits in kills with 13.

The Crimson victory proved even more impressive considering that Harvard's starting six players were often not playing, as Coach Jennifer Weiss experimented with different lineups.

Many non-starters took advantage of these opportunities and excelled. For instance, freshman middle hitter Lauren Gallagher demonstrated her versatality with an exceptional performance at opposite. Sophomore outside hitter Nicole Meunier stood out with exceptional play in the second and third games.

Perhaps most importantly, the dominating win indicated that the team may finally be gelling together as the regular season draws to a close.

"We clicked, just like we clicked against Columbia [on Saturday]," said sophomore outside hitter Liz Cebron. "With so many freshmen on the team, we needed to get to know each other by playing…we have better chemistry now."

"We've been talking about our potential all season," Pospisil added. "Now it's time to realize it. We need a winning streak, and hopefully that's what this is now."

Harvard fans hope that the winning streak will continue this weekend, as the Crimson travel to Hanover to take on a dangerous Dartmouth squad in what should be a pivotal Ivy matchup.
