BEVERLY, Mass. – Endicott men's volleyball registered the third highest team hitting percentage in program history in a 3-0 (25-11, 25-9, 25-11) victory over NECC opponent Regis on Thursday evening and in the process inched one win closer to achieving the team's fourth 20-win season in the past five years.

The Gulls improved to 19-8 overall and 11-0 in NECC matches after completing their season sweep over the Pride behind a .517 hitting percentage and standout errorless attacking efforts by middles Alex Wasik (Milford, Mass.) and Mike Coniglione (Glenville, N.Y.).  Wasik struck eight kills, with three block assists defensively, and Coniglione added six more to lead the Endicott attack.
