Vikings Defeat Warriors on Senior Day

MOUNT BERRY, Ga.- All five seniors scored at least a point for the Vikings on Senior day Sunday afternoon in the Cage Center as No.10-ranked Berry defeated SAA foe Hendrix 3-0 (25-21, 25-13, 25-12), with the Vikings having a solid day on both sides of the ball hitting .333 and racking up 26 block assists. 

Peyton Breissinger notched a career milestone during the first set, reaching 1,000 career points on the 830th kill of her career.

The Warriors got out to an early lead on the Vikings (16-2, 11-1 SAA), going up 7-2. But a five-point scoring run put Berry right back in it at 7-all. Ahead 12-11, a 7-1 scoring run for the Vikings put them ahead 19-12. Hendrix attempted a comeback in the final rallies but were unsuccessful as the Vikings took the first set 25-21.

Berry took the second set 25-13. Three kills in a row from Jazzy Innis tied up the score 6-6, then two aces from Molly Bergin gave her team the first lead of the set. Four straight kills from the Berry front row hiked the Vikings lead to 22-12, with the win in reach. Kills by Bergin and Olivia Mallow gave BC the 25-13 win.

Eleven attack errors from Hendrix and 11 kills from the Viking offense tallied up the majority of points for Berry in the third and final set, which hit for a .476 attack percentage and held the Warriors to -.091, as Berry totaled six blocks. The home team won the third set 25-12, with Hannah Hulsman's final kill of the weekend sealing the win.

Bergin led in three major categories with 12 kills on a .661 hitting percantage, in addition to 18 points and six total blocks, a career best. Emily Rapach recorded 33 assists and Kate Whittle dug up 17 in the back row.

Berry is back on the road on Friday and will travel to Jackson, Miss. to face Millsaps at 7 p.m. EST.
