WEEKEND AT A GLANCE
IUP women's volleyball (7-19, 3-10 PSAC) wraps up play against Southeast Division opponents this weekend as they travel to face West Chester (17-8, 6-7 PSAC) and Millersville (11-11, 6-7 PSAC). The Crimson Hawks will play the Golden Rams Friday at 7 p.m. and the Marauders Saturday at 1 p.m. IUP is coming off a pair of straight set home defeats at the hands of Kutztown and East Stroudsburg last weekend. Both West Chester and Millersville are fighting for playoff berths but are currently on losing streaks - the Rams have lost five straight matches and the Marauders have dropped five of seven.
NOTES
>> The Crimson Hawks wrap up their 2018 schedule on the road over the next two weeks having been eliminated from postseason tournament contention.
>> IUP won three combined meetings with West Chester and Millersville a year ago, including a 3-0 defeat of the Golden Rams in the opening round of the NCAA Championships in Wheeling.
>> The Crimson Hawks are 2-3 in true road matches this year with wins coming at Bloomsburg (3-0) and at Lock Haven (3-1) back in September.
>> Millersville is expected to be without top point scorer Jayci Suseland (281 kills, 54 blocks) after leaving the Cal match with an injury.
>> Junior middle
Jessica Ignace hit a season-best .391 (min. 20 attacks) with 11 kills in Saturday's loss to ESU. This year she leads the team in kills (207) and points (239.5).
>> Senior libero
Jess Marut is eighth among active Division II leaders with 2,148 career digs, which is 10th in PSAC history. She'll move into ninth place with 32 more digs and is 117 shy of eighth place all-time.
