Nashua NH
Rivier College (20-10; 9-1 GNAC) put out their best "trick" line-up and in return received a "treat" of reaching 20 wins for the season.  The Raiders scary offense, which consisted of 4 players 5'6" or smaller along with two players 5'7" and 5'8", got the job done and defeated U-Mass Dartmouth 3-1.  Outsized but not outplayed, Rivier placed 3 players in double digits for kills along with a 4th player narrowly missing with 9 kills.  The Raiders defense, perhaps influenced by Borat, Quail Man, and The Jeanie in the Bottle who all were in attendance, was outstanding tallying 76 digs in the 4 set match.  Junior Lindsay Chace played her best all around match to date.  Lo scooped up a team high 25 digs, made only 2 receive errors on a team high 28 attempts, and scored 9 points.  Fellow junior Becky Gautreau, a 5'4 middle hitter from Burrillville Rhode Island, played great defense with 12 digs and a team high 2 blocks and put down 3 kills.  Outside hitters Nicole Hersey and Emileigh Cenedella both tallied a double double with 16 kills-17 digs and 13 kills-10 digs respectively.  Lauren Saccoccio did it all with 10 kills, 7 digs, 21/21 on receive, 5 service aces, 3 assists, and 1 block while Colleen Van Cura returned to her setting ways with 43 assists.
