ANKENY, Iowa - Grinnell College's volleyball team tuned up for Midwest Conference play by taking care of Faith Baptist Bible College in straight sets Monday night.

The Pioneers improved to 14-2 with the 25-21, 25-14, 25-11 win. That victory total ranks as the eighth best in program history. Faith Baptist fell to 1-10 with the loss.

Grinnell featured a balanced hitting attack, with Rachel Woock '23 tallying 10  kills, Avery Richardson '23 coming up with nine and Sophia Carbajal '21 adding six.

Julianna Roth '22 contributed 27 assists and the Pioneers had 12 ace serves, including four from Emmy Nyquist '23, three by Madison Smith '20 and two by Woock. Smith also had 14 digs and Nyquist 11.

Grinnell shot out to a 12-2 lead in the opening set that included three-point service runs by Smith and Nyquist. The Pioneers used a four-point run early in the second set by pull away and had another similar spurt early in the third set to easily secure the victory.

The Pioneers open MWC play Saturday at Lawrence University in Appleton, Wis.
