Box Score ST CATHARINES, Ont - The Brock women's volleyball team (7-9 OUA) were defeated by the Ottawa GeeGees (12-3 OUA) 3-0 (11-25, 12-25, 19-25) Sunday afternoon at the Bob Davis Gymnasium. 

The No. 8 nationally ranked GeeGees, and their potent offense, would be too much for the Badgers to handle. Ottawa took the first two games of the match, without contest, by the scores of 25-11 and 25-12.

The Badgers returned to form in the third frame, bringing the score to 16-14 in favour of the Gee Gees at the technical timeout. Unfortunately, this was as close as Brock would come. Ottawa eventually went on to take the final set 25-19, on route to the 3-0 victory over the home side.

The Badgers offense was led by Renee Helmer (eight kills, six digs), Stacie Thomas (four kills) and Katie Murray (three kills). Libero Karlinna O'Leary tallied a game-high 17 digs in the loss.

Leading Ottawa's offense were fifth year senior English sisters. Kelsie English collected 10 kills, and 12 digs for the double-double. Myriam English also had a strong performance adding nine kills in the winning effort.

Brock struggled as a team, hitting just .058 percent, recording 24 kills and 19 errors on 86 total attempts. Their counterpart collected 34 kills, and just seven errors on 88 total attempts for a .307 hitting percntage.

Brock returns to action this Friday January, 30th as they welcome the Lakehead Thunderwolves to the Bob Davis Gymnasium.
