Box Score The University of Wisconsin Superior broke out of its slump with a three-game non-conference sweep of Upper Midwest Athletic Conference foe Crown College on Tuesday night in St. Bonifacius, Minnesota to start a three-match road trip through the conference this week. After a defensive-minded 25-19 victory in the first set, the Yellowjackets would turn up the heat on offense to take game two 25-16 and game three 25-20.

UW-Superior (4-12) hit just .155 for the match but had just four errors while hitting .370 in the second set that truly shifted the momentum in the Yellowjackets' favor after each team had more errors than kills in game one. Senior right-side hitter Alexis Landherr (Cambridge, Minn./Cambridge-Isanti H.S.) had 11 kills to lead UWS. The Yellowjackets used the serve to their advantage, dropping in 14 aces on the day, with sophomore setter Emily VerWay (Inver Grove Heights, Minn./Simley H.S.) leading the way with five aces to go with five kills, six digs, and 21 assists on the day.

Freshman outside hitter Brylee Colligan (Bemidji, Minn./Bemidji H.S.) followed up her UMAC Offensive Player of the Week honor by leading UW-Superior defensively with seven digs.  Christian Anderson had eight kills to lead the Storm. Crown College (1-12) got 22 assists from setter Kelsey Roschen.
