Men's volleyball earns dominant 3-0 win over Franklin

MIDWAY, Ky. - Midway men's volleyball put together a complete match to get itself back in the win column with a 25-13, 25-23, 25-15 triumph over Franklin (Ind.) College Wednesday night.

The Eagles hit .409 while the Grizzlies had a negative-.107 percentage at the net in the opening set, allowing Midway to earn a dominant win.

Things were much tougher in set two, as the Grizzlies put together a 5-0 run to take an 11-6 lead.

But as things went back-and-forth the rest of the set, the Eagles were able to put together two 5-0 runs of their own to eventually secure the win.

The first, aided by two Braden Cacek service aces, put Midway ahead 15-14. The second featured kills by Cacek and Steven Tippenhauer, then closed with a Jose Conde service ace to make it 22-20.

The set then ended on a kill by Jai'Den Chinnis on a pass from Jordan Dailey.

Chinnis led all players with nine kills and a .538 hitting percentage while Dailey recorded 20-plus assists for the third match in a row, finishing with a career-high 26.

Dailey's assist total on Wednesday was the most by a Midway player since Daniel Cogo had 39 in a match against Wabash on March 6 of last year.

The third set was competitive early, before Midway scored eight of nine points to break a 7-7 tie to secure its second sweep of the season.

Lincoln Anderson led all players with 13 digs while Cacek and Steven Tippenhauer had seven and six kills respectively for the Eagles, who improve to 2-12 on the season.

Midway is back home for a River States Conference match against Indiana East at 7 p.m. Friday.
