WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. ? The Eagles volleyball team picked up it's 24th win on Wednesday over NCAA DII Palm Beach Atlantic Sailfish in a four-set victory on the road (25-14, 25-20, 20-25, 25-22).

This was the first time since 2001 that the Eagles have topped the Sailfish. The Eagles win in 2001 was a five-set victory on Nov. 16 in the NAIA Region XIV tournament. PBA has defeated ERAU thirteen times since the 2001 match.

On the Sailfish's senior night, the Eagles came out firing. They took set one quickly as seven service aces aided them in the first set. Four aces came from Abby Hall in the team's last five points in the set. Jenni Nelsen marked two while Savannah Trakes tallied one.

The Eagles kept their run going in the second set as accurate serving aided the Eagles. Nelsen pulled the Eagles way from the Sailfish by serving five consecutive points. Trakes and Alana Martinez closed the second set with a huge block on the right-side giving the Eagles the 2-0 edge.

The Sailfish ran away with an early lead in set three to turn the momentum into their favor. The Eagles began to climb back from a five point deficit as they came within one of the Sailfish at 11-10. The home team did not allow the Eagles within one point the rest of the match keeping a two-point margin over ERAU. PBA's Brittany Erickson tallied 8 of her team leading 15 kills in the third set.

In the final set, the Eagles tied the game at 21 after the Sailfish had led the game since the first point. Savannah Trakes put ERAU up by one on a service ace and it was followed by a kill from Marissa Gonzales's arm. After a PBA timeout Lauren Anastatse marked two of her four kills, including the winning point in set four, to lead the Eagles to their 24th win.

Gonzales finished the night with 41 assists and two kills. She assisted Trakes on all 13 of her team-leading kills. Nelsen finished the match with three service aces and nine of each digs and kills. Julia Frassetto picked up 22 digs in the match.

The Eagles record improves to 24-3 overall and stays the same in conference play at 12-1. The Blue and Gold will host Edward Waters in their final regular season match on Thursday evening at 7 p.m. in the ICI Center. The Eagles can clinch the regular season conference championship title with a win over EWC.
