BOWLING GREEN, Ky. – Even with a quick turnaround between matches during Friday's doubleheader, the Indiana Volleyball team (7-4, 0-0) kept humming along, defeating Tennessee Tech 3-0 in the nightcap at Diddle Arena.
The Hoosiers had an extremely efficient offensive night, even without star middle blocker Kaley Rammelsberg.
Melisa Ilter was inserted into the starting rotation and the Hoosiers didn't skip a beat to the tune of a 25-15, 25-12, 25-21 victory.
IU hit .438 on the evening, the 9th-best single game hitting percentage in program history and the highest since the Hoosiers hit .452 against UNLV in 2017.
Mady Saris and Candela Alonso-Corcelles were into double-digits in kills once again as IU won its second-consecutive game.
The Hoosiers will close out the weekend against No. 21 Western Kentucky tomorrow afternoon.
