Senior Laura Brier reached a career milestone as the Berry volleyball team opened a three-game test in Atlanta at the Emory National Invite by beating Randolph-Macon 3-1 on Friday.

                The Vikings, who clinched the Southern Athletic Association regular season championship last week and will host the SAA Tournament Nov. 5-7, improves their overall record to 20-2 heading into their match Saturday when they face Washington & Lee.

                Against Macon, Berry won the first set 25-17, then saw the Jackets even the game winning the second set 25-15. But the Vikings regained control and took 28-26 and 25-14 decisions in the next two sets to seal the win.

               The match between the two teams became even more special for Beier as the veteran libero recorded her 2,000th career dig within the first few points of the opening set. Beier ended the night with 18 digs.

               In addition to Beier's career highlight, teammates Molly Bergin 14 kills and Jazzy Innis added 14 and 13 kills, respectively, and Emily Rapach had 36 assists.

                The Vikings take on Washington and Lee University at 10:30 a.m. on Saturday morning, then close out the regular season Sunday facing host Emory at 1:30 p.m.
