Also turning in notable performances for the Tribe was sophomore Celine Alasomuka (Centreville, Va.), who had 16 digs and two aces.  Middles Shaylin O'Connell (Leesburg, Va.) and Alexandra Ciaccio (Houston, Texas) had five kills and six kills, respectively, with O'Connell adding three blocks while Ciaccio earned her kills while hitting .417.  Redshirt-freshmen Paulette Grand Pre (Laguna Beach, Calif.) rounded out the notables with nine digs and two aces.

William and Mary returns home next weekend for the final two home matches of the year, hosting Georgia State and UNC Wilmington on Friday and Saturday.
