The Daily Collegian Blocking key in Lions’ victory over Red Storm By Ryan Loy COLLEGIAN STAFF WRITER Every time the St. John’s play ers tried to hit the ball over the net to the Nittany Lions’ side of the court, it came right back at them. The No. 2 Penn State women’s volleyball team didn’t quite get rolling offensively Saturday night, but thanks to Brown strong blocking it easily swept the Red Storm (25-11, 25-15,25-5). The Lions lifted their hitting percentage to a respectable .314 by the match’s end, but for much of the night it was their ability to stuff St. John’s attack that helped them control play. Penn State out-blocked the Red Storm 16.5-3.0 in the match including a 9so-1.0 advantage in the first set. The 16.5 blocks were the most the Lions had in any match this season. “I don’t think we had a great night hitting, but we blocked really well,” Penn State coach Russ Rose said. “I thought [Saturday night] was a much better blocking night, and it needs to be because that’s a team that takes full swings.” Though Rose didn’t believe his team’s blocking was significant in the first two matches of the week- ■■ ■ m Colleqran Classifieds - 12 3 4 5 Each add'l issue issues issues issues issues issue Number of words $6.50 59.50 $12.50 $15.50 $18.50 $3.00 8.00 12.15 16.30 9.50 14.80 *20.10 25.40 30.70 5.30 11.00 17.45 23.90 30.35 36.80 6.45 12.50 20.10 27.70 35.30 42.90 7.60 Each add'l 5 words add 1.50 2.65 3.80 4.95 6.10 1.15 Collegian Inc. reserves the right to reject, reclassify or revise any ad to conform to established policies.

Penn State totaled 35 blocks dur ing the three weekend matches while opponents had just four. The Lions had six different play ers contribute to the blocking against St. John’s, with senior Fatima Balza and junior Katie Kabbes leading the team with eight apiece. Rose said he was happy with the way his team handled the Red Storm because St. John’s has some international players whose style of play was unknown. The Lions front row consistent ly had two or three players con testing attacks with their arms extended over the net. Many of those challenges resulted in blocks or Red Storm hitting errors. Penn State held the visitors to a -.257 hitting percentage, well below St. John’s season average of .222.
