Camels sweep UNCW

WILMINGTON, NC – Campbell completed the weekend sweep of local rival UNCW with a 3-0 sweep Saturday in the Port City. All three sets were close, but the Camels finished each set strong to ensure the quick victory.
 
Campbell improves to 12-5, 4-2 in league play with the win. UNCW drops to 3-14, 2-6.
 
Wolkow continued her big weekend with team-bests 11 kills and five blocks (ties career high). The senior set or tied her career high in kills, blocks, and service aces this weekend.
 
She also logged her 1000th career kill Saturday, becoming the 15th Camel to reach the milestone, and the first since Chloe Cook and Melody Paige each got their in 2023.
 
The Camels took the early lead Saturday behind a 25-22 first set. Lauren Wheeler served three aces in the opening frame, including the last two points of the set.
 
It was déjà vu in the second set, with Campbell again taking it 25-22, and two of the last three points coming via service ace. Daca got things going offensively in the second with __ kills to pace the offense that hit .242 for the second set in a row as well.
 
Campbell nearly squandered away the sweep as a 10 point was cut to only one following an 11-1 UNCW run. The Camels made sure UNCW never led and countered with a late run of their own to take the third set 25-20.  Wolkow and Heytvelt put the finishing touches on the match with back-to-back blocks to close it out.
 
Maja Daca had an efficient day with 10 kills on .500 hitting, committing only one error. Bella Illig paced the Campbell defense with 15 digs, helping hold the Seahawks to hitting .121 on the afternoon.
 
Campbell returns to The Creek to host Hampton next weekend. Friday night is the annual Dig Pink Match, and Saturday is Homecoming and Alumni Day.
