CHICKASHA, OK: The Texas Wesleyan University volleyball team (22-3, 9-3 SAC) added another win in straight sets (25-19, 25-18, 25-18) over the University of Science & Arts (2-12, 2-10 SAC) at Drover Fieldhouse on Thursday.
 
Texas Wesleyan spread the ball around nicely to start the match, as four different players scored at least one point early on. Brianna Jaramillo capped a 5-1 run to gain a 14-9 advantage. The Drovers couldn't overcome the errors as Jaramillo and Shaylee Griffin knocked down a block on the way to a 25-19 win.
 
Kayla Hayes fooled the Drover defense with a service ace on the way to a Lady Ram 7-3 lead to start the second. Alanna Hayhurst tacked on three consecutive kills to push the game to 14-8. Jaramillo and the Rams put the second set to bed with a 25-18 win.
 
Ariel Emory connected on two kills to keep Wesleyan from falling too far behind to start the third set. The Drovers enjoyed their biggest lead of the match at 7-3 after a Dana Stepankova spike. USAO committed too many errors though, making way for the Lady Rams to grab a 13-10 lead after Shelby Stinnett went back-to-back with an ace and a kill. Shaylee Griffin gave TXWES a 23-14 lead on a kill before USAO committed two more errors to give the Rams a 25-18, 3-0 win.
 
Jaramillo led the attack on 10 kills, hitting .304 with three block assists. Sasha Robinson earned her 17th and fifth consecutive double-double behind 18 assists and 10 digs. Emory and Stinnett each added five kill in the win.
