Parker, Currie Reach Milestones as Women's Volleyball Cruises to ODAC Semis

Box Score

ASHLAND, Va. – The Randolph-Macon women's volleyball team looked strong in a Wednesday night affair, as Head Coach Bill Roger's side cruised to a 3-0 win over Bridgewater in the Quaterfinals of the Old Dominion Athletic Conference Tournament.

The Basics:

Scores: No. 4 Randolph-Macon 3, No. 5 Bridgewater 0 (25-22, 25-19, 25-7)

Location/Venue: Ashland, Va./Crenshaw Gym

Records: No. 4 Randolph-Macon 21-6, No. 5 Bridgewater 18-11

How It Happened:

  • The opening set saw Randolph-Macon take control early as Grace Parker (Andover, N.J./Pope John XXIII) was swinging early with eight winners. R-MC used a strong offensive output to pull away and take the 1-0 lead.
  • Randolph-Macon continued the success from the opening set to the second stanza, as the Yellow Jackets never trailed in the frame. Bridgewater made a late run, but two late Bailey Johnson (Chesapeake, Va./Western Branch) kills pushed R-MC to the 2-0 lead.
  • The third set was dominate for the Yellow Jackets, as the Randolph-Macon defense allowed just seven points in the frame. Parker took the match over with 11 of her 24 kills in the stanza.

Inside The Numbers:

  • Grace Parker (Andover, N.J./Pope John XXIII) led the way for the Yellow Jackets with 23 kills yet again while Leslie Currie (Mechanicsville, Va./Hanover) tallied 18 digs to lead the way on the defensive side. DeCandido looked strong defensively as well, recording 11 digs of her own. 
  • Milly Mach (Chesapeake, Va./Hickory) shined at the net as well, as the setter recorded 34 assists in just three sets.

Milestone Manor:

  • Parker has found her name atop a new list as her 24 kills tonight give her 519 kills on the season, setting a new Randolph-Macon and Old Dominion Athletic Conference single-season mark.
  • Currie found the record book as well, has her 18 digs eclipsed the 1,000 dig mark for her career in just three season.

Up Next:

  • The Yellow Jackets will return to Crenshaw Gym Friday, November 4 as they play hosts to eighth-seeded Roanoke after the Maroons took down top-seeded Virginia Wesleyan on the road. The win tonight clinched a spot in the Semifinals, as Averett and Washington and Lee clash on the other side of the bracket.
