Senior right side Ava Ferringer (Venus, Pa., Cranberry) hit .500 and finished with 10 kills. It was her fifth match of the year registering 10 or more kills. Sophomore outside hitter Liv Trent (Pittsburgh, Pa., Brentwood) added eight kills and 11 digs. Westminster hit .243 behind 16 assists from junior setter Angie Nardone (Ellwood City, Pa., Lincoln), who eclipsed 1,000 career assists, and 11 from sophomore setter Anna-Kate Davis (Boonsboro, Md., Boonsboro).

Freshman libero Brooke Gecina (Aurora, Ohio, Aurora) added 10 digs. Junior middle hitter Shelby Rambo (East Palestine, Ohio, Crestview) totaled four kills and four block assists.

Heidelberg 3, Westminster 2 (19-25, 19-25, 25-17, 25-17, 15-13)
The Titans jumped out to a 2-0 lead with 25-19 wins in the first and second sets. Ferringer had five first set kills while senior right side Elise Jordan (Key Largo, Fla.) came through with three kills in both the first and second. Knotted at 13-13 in the third, Heidelberg, fueled by a 7-3 scoring run, went up four, 20-16, and scored the final five points to claim the 25-17 win in the third. Trailing 16-9 in the fourth, Westminster stormed back with a 5-0 run to get to within two. Heidelberg outscored Westminster 8-2 down the stretch to force the pivotal fifth set. Tied 7-7 in the fifth, Heidelberg went up 12-9 before a Rambo kill cut the deficit to one, 12-11. Back-to-back attack errors by Heidelberg allowed Westminster to sneak back to within one late, 14-13, but a Grace Porter kill ended the match.

It was Heidelberg's sixth five-set match this season (3-3) and its second of the day after defeating Hanover College in the opener. It was just the second five-set match for Westminster (0-2) this season. 

Ferringer finished with a career-high 14 kills and seven digs while Rambo added 10 kills and three block assists. Junior outside hitter Rachel Brady (Columbus, Pa., Corry) added nine kills, 13 digs and five service aces. Nardone (22) and Davis (12) combined for 34 of Westminster's 46 assists. Trent finished with 20 digs. 

Heidelberg held Westminster to .081 hitting and had 15.0-5.0 edge in total blocks. It was the second time this season the Titans were held under .100 hitting. 

Lexi Wachtman paced Heidelberg with a 12-kill, 14-dig double-double. Olivia Miller totaled 123 assists and 10 digs while Grace Dohanyos had 29 digs.
