PROVIDENCE, R.I. -- A four-match East Coast road swing began on the right foot for the Wyoming Cowgirls, as they swept Brown in three games Thursday night.
The Cowgirls, 7-3, was challenged by Brown (1-5), but prevailed 25-21, 25-22 and 25-17.
“Tonight’s match gave us an opportunity to play before we start our tournament at New Hampshire,” Wyoming coach Carrie Yerty said. “JennaRae (Jester) was steady for us both offensively and defensively, along with Jodi Purdy, who is very consistent for us. They battled back under pressure in sets one and two, which helped us come up with this victory.”
Two Cowgirls finished the night in double-figures, led by Purdy's 11 kills and eight digs. Jester recorded 10 kills and six blocks, while hitting .526 (10-0-19). Wyoming hit .265 (35-8-102) for the match and had 10 total team blocks.
Wyoming continues its road trip Friday at the Holly Young Invitational in Durham, N.H. The Cowgirls will take on New Hampshire at 5 p.m. MT. On Saturday, Wyoming takes on Arizona State and Harvard to close out the weekend.
