BOSTON, Mass. – Led by Hannah Bailey's (Plymouth, Mass.) 15 kills, the Wentworth Institute of Technology women's volleyball team swept Curry College, 3-0 (25-22, 25-16, 25-12) in a Commonwealth Coast Conference match played at Tansey Gymnasium.

With the win the Leopards improve to 16-8 overall and 2-4 in CCC play, while the Colonels fall to 9-16 (0-6).

Curry came out of the gate firing on all cylinders and took a quick 4-1 lead. After Wentworth took a point, sophomore Jordan Young (Derry, N.H.) stepped to the service line and helped her team score six straight points to force a Colonel timeout. With the score 7-4 in favor of the Leopards, Young continued her strong play at the line and helped extend the lead to 10-4. Wentworth's lead would balloon to 20-13 before Curry battled back with four straight points to get within three. A Bailey kill put the score at 22-19 and helped finish the first set with Wentworth taking the 25-22 victory.

The Colonels took another early lead in the second set behind solid serves and defensive play. With the score 6-2 in favor of Curry, Bailey recorded three kills and Young aced to tie the game at six. The set would be tied at both 8-all and 9-all before Sheena Dignean's (Constantia, N.Y.) lefty kill gave Wentworth the 11-10 lead. The Black & Gold then went on to score 10 straight points to extend their lead to 20-11. Amanda Hunton (Monroe, N.Y.) ended the frame with a kill from the right side to give Wentworth the 25-16 win.

Wentworth would start the scoring in the final set, and took an early 10-2 lead behind two Bailey kills. Curry would fight back to tighten the score at 12-7 with help from a Brittany Lynch (Randolph, Mass.) block. Wentworth stepped up the intensity and built its lead to 20-11 after a Sam Curran (Quincy, Mass.) ace. Curry would take one final point, but the Leopards were too much as Hunton scored the final two points to give the Leopards a 25-12 win, completing the sweep
