AGGIES CRUISE TO WIN OVER WSSU
GREENSBORO – One match doesn’t erase an entire season, but for about 75 minutes on Friday, all was good with the North Carolina A&T volleyball team.
The Aggies defeated Winston-Salem State 3-0 (25-10, 25-14, 25-17) at Corbett Sports Center. It was a match that included Aggie players dancing on the court and Aggie fans of all ages dancing in the bleachers.
After the game, fans lingered on the court, peppered with the volleyball and danced. Friday’s win didn’t nullify a season of difficulty. But for about an hour, Aggie volleyball was the life of the party. It was the Aggies first sweep of an opponent since beating Gardner-Webb 3-0 on Nov. 11, 2008.
The last time the Aggies and Rams met it was not a festive occasions for N.C. A&T. Top hitter Janae Mitchell didn’t play because of an illness in a 3-1 loss to the Rams in Winston-Salem, N.C., on Oct. 11.
Mitchell and the Aggies obviously had vengeance on their minds. Mitchell finished with a match-high 13 kills and nine digs. Sophomore Bree Dotstry added eight kills, just one attack error and two blocks, while junior setter Amber Inman posted 32 assists, eight digs and four service aces.
In the first set, the Aggies jumped out to a 10-2 lead behind the might of Dotstry who had three of the first 10 points. The set was 18-points old before the Aggies recorded their first attack error. Dotstry concluded her strong set by elevating above the net slam down her fourth kill to clinch the first-set victory for the Aggies.
N.C. A&T kept the onslaught going by posting a 9-0 run in the second set to take 23-11 lead. The Rams closed the set with a ball handling and attack error to give the Aggies the set.
The Rams posed more of a challenge in the third set. A Georgette Allen kill moved the Rams to within two, 19-17. It was all Aggies from there. Senior Tiffany Mellette sparked a 6-0 Aggies with a kill, and fueled the run with two service aces to earn the Aggies their second win over the Rams this season.
The Aggies head to Orangeburg, S.C., to face S.C. State on Sunday, and return to Corbett Sports Center Tuesday night at 6 to face Elon on what will be Senior Night for Mellette, Mitchell and Stacey Malone.

The Aggies end their season at 2-31 mainly because they lacked depth all season long. Head coach Toni Conway did not arrive in Aggieland until July, which made it impossible to add depth. Add to that the passing of Conway’s mother during her inaugural season as head coach, and the Aggies had a lot more to deal with than just services aces and blocks this season.
