FROSTBURG, Md. (November 12, 2017) - The FDU volleyball team topped John Jay 25-9, 25-14, 21-25, 25-18 in the Quarterfinal of the ECAC Tournament Saturday.

The Devils move to 26-8, and will face Brandeis in the semifinal tomorrow at 12 p.m.

With FDU leading 5-4 in the second, junior Lauren Harris served up four straight points, including an ace. As the Bloodhounds closed to within 17-14, senior Amelia Vetto ended the frame with seven straight markers, including four service aces during the run.

The Devils were unable to complete the sweep, but came back for a win in the fourth set. After falling behind early, Vetto led the comeback, putting the team up 10-6 while tallying two aces during the spurt.

John Jay would get as close as two points, but could not do enough to force a fifth set. Katie Quinlan and Conte had back-to-back kills to give the Devils the victory.

Senior Melissa Gaffney notched a double-double of 13 kills and 15 digs, while Harris had nine kills and a team best 25 digs. Vetto set a career-high the six aces, as the team had 10 aces.
