WASHINGTON, D.C – DePaul volleyball fell to Georgetown 3-0 (25-23, 25-18, 25-23) Saturday evening, dropping to 12-9 overall, including 5-5 in BIG EAST matches. Georgetown improves to 13-10 overall and 6-4 in league play.

DePaul was paced offensively by 11 kills at a .444 clip from middle blocker Jade Dudley-Epps, her sixth match this season with double-digit kills. She was closely followed by freshman Kendall Timme and Isabela Tavares Salomon, who both registered eight kills.

Abby Cahill anchored the DePaul defense with 12 digs on the night. Cahill, Timme and Morgan Stewart also added a pair of service aces each.

HOW IT HAPPENED:
SET ONE
The sides were even early, until a 4-0 scoring run gave the Blue Demons a narrow two-point advantage. Georgetown immediately responded with a 6-0 run of its own, propelled by a trio of kills from Grace Albaugh. DePaul fought back to take seven of the next points, paced by three kills from Timme, but it was one final 4-0 run from the Hoyas that won the set, 25-23.

SET TWO
The teams traded points to begin the second frame, but it was a 4-0 run from the Hoyas that put them in front, 10-6. DePaul rebounded with two aces from Stewart and a kill from Katelynn Oxley, knotting the set at 13 points. Neither side could pull away until Georgetown tallied a pair of 3-0 runs, led by kills from Samantha Soderlund and Katherine McGregor. A final Albaugh kill sealed the set victory for Georgetown, 25-18.

SET THREE
The third set proved to be the tightest battle throughout. DePaul opened with a 3-0 run, but the Hoyas quickly closed the gap, and the sides traded points the rest of the way. Meghan Scholz checked in, contributing five kills and a block for the Blue Demons, while McGregor added five kills of her own for Georgetown. A late 3-0 run put the Hoyas ahead, and they won the set, 25-23, with a kill from Soderlund.
