(Nashua, N.H.) The Rivier University Raiders earned their 3^rd conference win against the Jaguars of Wentworth Institute of Technology, 3-2.  The win lifts the Raiders to a 13-7 overall record and 4-0 in conference play.

The scores were 23-25, 25-14,17-25, 25-22, & 15-7.

The two east coast giants put on quite the show as three Raiders shared double digits in the kill category. Junior David Smith dropped an impressive 19 kills on 38 attempts hitting at .368. He also contributed 7 digs and 3 assisted blocks.

Senior Khaynen (Pittsburgh, Pa) tallied 13 kills on 22 attempts hitting at an efficient .455. He also came up with 7 digs.

Rookie Jack Normandin (Clifton Park, N.Y.) put down 10 kills and 3 aces.  He was also a defensive asset collecting 8 digs and a block.

Senior Dashaun Graham (Highland Falls, N.Y.) also chipped in with 7 kills, 3 digs and 2 block assists.

Without the likes of junior Pedro Campos (Downey, Calif.) and his incredible setting abilities 47 of the Raiders 53 assists would not have been recorded.
