(Nashua) - Kelle Pfunder (Cinncinnati, Ohio) notched a match high eight kills and 10 digs and Kristen Gawrys (Chicago, Ill.) added six kills to lead Johnson & Wales past host Daniel Webster, 3-0 in a GNAC women’s volleyball matchup Tuesday night, winning 30-25, 30-16, 30-18.

Audra Vaccari (Winstead, Conn.) dished out 26 assists and added five serving aces as the Wildcats (6-5) won their third straight and remained perfect in conference play, improving to 4-0.

Jasmine Salinas (Houston, Tex.) led Daniel Webster (2-2, 1-2 GNAC) with seven kills, three aces and five digs, while Jess Carter (Martinsburg, W.V.) added four kills and Marissa Slane dished out 13 assists.

The teams played close through game one, but Vaccari rattled off four consecutive aces putting the Wildcats ahead 25-20 and were never threatened the rest of the way. Johnson & Wales took control in game two with a 9-0 run on the way to the 30-16 win.

The Eagles return to action Thursday when they host Lyndon State in a non-conference matchup beginning at 7:00 p.m.
