OWENSBORO, Ky. - The Indiana University Kokomo volleyball win streak reached 10 last night as the Cougars took care of the Brescia Bearcats, 3-0 at The Moore Center. The Cougars move to 21-8 overall and 13-1 in River States Conference action with just four matches left this season. 

Erinn Adam led all players with 10 kills on 19 attempts with one error, hitting .474 in the win. Kendal Williams led the way with 15 assists while Kaley Lyons added 13. Alyvia Smith and Alexa Roberts each had nine digs. 

In the opening set, the Cougars scored points in bunches with one of their biggest runs being a 5-0 run that turned a match tied at four into a five point lead for IUK. With a six point advantage at 17-11, IU Kokomo ended the first set on an 8-2 run to take the 1-0 match lead. 

A 5-0 and a 6-0 run was the difference in the middle set as the Cougars cruised to a 25-12 victory. The 5-0 run came as the match was tied at seven. Three of the points came off of Bearcat mishaps and the other two were kills from Sidney Gerig to cap off the run. In the 6-0 run, four of the points came from Brescia errors and the other two came via kills from Adam. Audrey Strawsma ended the set with a kill to put IUK up 2-0. 

Trailing 3-2 early, the Cougars used a 7-0 run to gain the lead back from the Bearcats. This time, Brescia answered with an 8-0 run of its own to regain the lead and force IU Kokomo head coach Heather Hayes to use the first of her two timeouts. The Bearcats kept the set close but with the Cougars leading by one at 21-20, IUK rattled off four straight points, the final three coming off Brescia mistakes. The Cougars held on for their 15th sweep of the season and secured their 10th straight victory. 

The Cougars will return to action this Friday as they host IU Southeast at 7 p.m. On Saturday IU Kokomo will host Midway as they look for revenge, as the Eagles gave the Cougars their only conference blemish of the season back on September 17.
