ROCK ISLAND, Ill. - The Illinois Wesleyan University volleyball team got back on track with a win at Augustana College Wednesday night, March 24, at Carver P.E. Center in Rock Island, Ill. The Titans (2-2) topped the Vikings (1-5) in four sets by scores of 25-13, 25-13, 20-25, and 25-23.

The Lemont, Ill. native racked up a match-high 13 kills on a .348 attack percentage, to go along with seven blocks. Freshman Maddie Dryfhout (Orland Park, Ill.-Chicago Christian) added 11 kills and 13 digs. 

Juniors Amber Juarez (Bloomington, Ill.-Normal U High) and Makenna Jacoby (Shorewood, Ill.-Minooka Community) anchored IWU's strong defensive performance. Juarez registered a match-high 22 digs, while Jacoby added 19 as the Titans finished with an 80-68 edge in digs. The Green and White also doubled up Augie in blocks, 10-5.
