BRISTOL, R.I. - In a matchup between the two undefeated teams remaining in Commonwealth Coast Conference (CCC) play, the Endicott women's volleyball took down Roger Williams 3-1 on Saturday afternoon. With the win, Endicott improves to 17-11 (7-0 CCC) on the season while Roger Williams drops to 15-7 (6-1 CCC).

After Endicott claimed a tight first set 25-23, the hosts would come back to claim the second by a 25-21 score to even the match at one set a piece. The Gulls would then take the third by a 25-19 score in what would prove to be the biggest margin of victory in the match. Tied 21-21 in the fourth, Endicott saw senior Tori McIntyre (San Diego, Calif.) rattle off four straight kills to claim the set 25-21, and the match, 3-1.

Endicott, now 7-0 in conference play, sits alone atop the CCC standings with two conference matches remaining. The Gulls play host to Nichols on Tuesday at 7:00 p.m. before traveling to Wentworth on Saturday to end the regular season.
