BLOOMINGTON, Ind. - Senior outside hitter Morgan Geddes produced one of the best offensive outputs in the past 15 years enroute to a Saturday morning (Aug. 26) sweep of Southern Indiana at Wilkinson Hall.
IU (2-0, 0-0), less than 15 hours removed from a win over New Hampshire, held the Screaming Eagles to just .053 hitting as a team in a straight-set sweep (25-16, 25-14, 25-18).
Geddes, the Grove City, Ohio native went errorless in the match, providing 12 kills on 14 swings, an offensive clip of .857 in a morning where the Hoosiers hit .324 (44-11-102) as a team.
Over the past 15 years, since the 25-point rally era was implemented in 2008, only two Hoosiers have hit better in a single match while producing at least 12 kills. Samantha Thrower (15-0-15) hit perfect in a match against Buffalo in 2011 while All-American Ashley Benson hit .889 (17-1-18) in a match against Niagra in 2010.
Junior outside hitter Mady Saris led the way for IU with 14 kills and three digs while junior setter Camryn Haworth produced her first double-double of the season with 33 assists and 10 digs. In her collegiate debut, freshman middle blocker Ava Vickers recorded seven blocks.
IU will look for the weekend sweep on Saturday with a match against Radford to close out the Indiana Invitational.
