Cambridge MA
No-4 Rivier College (21-1 overall; 7-0 GNAC) extended the nation's longest win streak to 18 matches after a dominating 3-0 win over Division I Harvard University.  The Raiders showed off the whole package of a high powered offense, solid blocking, tough serving, and consistent passing to control the Crimson for most of the match.  Rivier hit a sensational .505, picked up 14 blocks, bombed in 6 ace serves, and had only 2 receive errors for their best effort to date.  Setter Zach Hansen made great decisions all match, dishing out 44 assists, allowing for 3 Raiders to reach double digits in kills.  The 6'1 junior also tallied 5 blocks and 2 ace serves in the effort.  Sophomore Austin Soucy led all attackers with 12 kills while passing a team high 22 for 22 on receive and picking up 2 blocks and 4 digs.  The tandem of Jared Andreozzi and Scott Wright were nearly unstoppable on offense combining for 22 kills with no errors and a .688 hitting percentage.  Andreozzi also played great defense with a team high 8 digs and 3 blocks while Wright put up 3 blocks and 2 ace serves.  Freshman Drew Corwin was clutch in the end of set three with 3 big kills and 1 block while tallying 9 kills (9-1-13 - .615) and 2 blocks on the match.  Junior middle blocker Matt Ferreira led all Raiders with 7 blocks and chipped in with 8 kills while libero Kyle O'Neill passed 14 for 14 on receive.
