Spartans Finish Strong on Senior Day

North Manchester, Ind. - Manchester Volleyball closed its regular season with a convincing sweep of Berea, winning 25–18, 25–10, and 25–19 at Stauffer-Wolfe Arena on Senior Day. The Spartans dominated from start to finish, improving to 14-13 overall and 5-4 in HCAC play.

Manchester's attack was sharp and balanced, hitting .425 as a team while holding Berea to just .052. The Spartans totaled 36 kills and nine service aces, with steady contributions from across the lineup. Avery Ball and Kaitlyn Smith led the offense with efficient performances, while Maddi Smith added several key kills at the net. Morgan Howard and Mariah Forbes directed the attack effectively, combining for more than 30 assists and applying pressure from the service line. Defensively, Emma Bault and Lily Lichtenbarger anchored the backcourt and front row, as Manchester collected 34 digs and four total blocks.

The Spartans' strong serving and efficient execution never allowed Berea to find a rhythm, resulting in a comfortable sweep to close the regular season. The victory gives Manchester momentum heading into postseason play and capped off a solid home performance in front of a supportive crowd at Stauffer-Wolfe Arena.
