Volleyball Downs Embry-Riddle, Falls To Wingate

PEMBROKE – The UNC Pembroke volleyball team logged nine blocks and seven services aces to fuel a 5-set victory against Embry-Riddle, but fell in straight sets to Wingate on the final day of the UNC Pembroke Invitational on Saturday at Lumbee Guaranty Bank Court. The Braves rallied to take down Embry-Riddle, 3-2 (18-25, 25-22, 18-25, 25-22, 15-13), in the first matchup of the day, but dropped a 3-0 (18-25, 15-25, 15-25) decision to Wingate to wrap up the round-robin tournament. 

The Braves (3-5) evened the season series with the Eagles (6-2), who took the first meeting in the season opener at the Flagler Saints Invitational. The Black & Gold had three players who logged double-digit kills, while also having three players accumulate double-digit digs against the Eagles.
