BOCA RATON, Fla. - The No. 16 Flyers defeated Rollins 3-1 (25-21, 20-25, 25-21, 25-20) Friday morning thanks in part to the play of two of the newest Flyers, sophomore transfers Carly Perschnick (Dwight, Ill./Dwight Township/Nova Southeastern) and Jen Krumwiede (Elkhart, Ind./Elkhart Memorial/IPFW).

Perschnick hit .387 with 15 kills while Krumwiede added hit .310 with 13 kills, 12 digs and four aces. Junior Hannah Koeneman (New Haven, Ind./Woodlan) totaled 11 kills with a .387 attack percentage. Defensively senior Lauren Seliga (St. Louis, Mo./Nerinx) had 19 digs while graduate student Adria Phillips (South Bend, Ind./Riley/Indiana) provided 13 digs.

"Their two outsides are big and can really jump," head coach Lorelee Smith said. "Lauren had some big digs on them that were the caliber of any libero in the country."

Rollins led for much of the first set, holding a 17-15 advantage before a 5-1 Lewis run turned the tide. Perschnick had a pair of kills during the stretch.

After dropping the second set, Lewis came back to win the third. The Flyers led 21-12 before Rollins made it close 23-21, but back-to-back Rollins errors gave the set to the Flyers.

Lewis led the fourth set 14-10 only to see the Tars score five consecutive points and grab the lead. It was 19-18 in favor of Rollins when the Flyers pulled away with a 6-0 run. Krumwiede had a kill and an ace during the stretch.

Rollins falls to 0-1 while Lewis is 2-0. The Flyers play tournament host Lynn on Friday afternoon at 4 p.m. CT.
