Findlay, Ohio- The University of Findlay volleyball team returned to Croy Physical Education Center to host the Kentucky Wesleyan Panthers in a Great Midwest Athletic Conference (G-MAC) matchup.

The Oilers delivered with a win in straight sets (25-10, 25-10, 25-18) and improved to 20-3 on the year with a 11-1 record in conference play. Kentucky Wesleyan's struggles continue, dropping to 1-21 on the year and 0-12 in the league.

Findlay held the advantage from the start, jumping out to a 13-2 lead. A kill from freshman Victoria Mescher followed by a Panther error sealed the first set, 25-10.

The Oilers controlled the second set from start to finish, jumping out to a 22-9 lead before closing it out 25-10 to go up 2-0 in the match. The third set followed a similar script, as Findlay maintained its momentum to earn a 25-18 victory and complete the sweep over the Panthers from Owensboro, Ky.

With the sweep, Findlay extended its streak to 18 consecutive set victories, not dropping a single set since mid-October and posting six straight sweeps.
