\nChris Moise led all players with 18 kills as the men handed Stevenson its first loss.<\/div>\n

Faced with an upstart team trying for its second big win in a row, the Eastern Mennonite men’s volleyball team<\/a> responded to the challenge. For a time, the Royals played their best volleyball of the year before gritting out the finish in a 3-1 win over NECVA Metro foe Stevenson.<\/p>\n

The Mustangs had never beaten EMU coming in, entering with a 0-16 mark against the Royals. But with an infusion of young talent this year, Stevenson entered the match 7-0 overall and riding a 3-1 win over No. 15 Ramapo.<\/p>\n

Eastern Mennonite quickly took the momentum on the home court, streaking to a 9-2 lead with some big attacks and a pair of service aces.<\/p>\n

Stevenson called a timeout and regrouped, but game one was never in doubt as the Royals won 25-18.<\/p>\n

Game two looked to be the same, as the men ran out to a 23-12 edge. But after trading points, EMU got sloppy and gave up a 5-0 run. The Royals still won 25-18, but the momentum turned for game three.<\/p>\n

Stevenson jumped ahead 7-3. Then with an 11-8 lead, the Mustangs effectively scored two points for every one of EMU’s to grab an easy 25-15 win and force a game four.<\/p>\n

The visitors took an early lead again before the Royals went up 7-5. Stevenson then used a 5-0 run to jump back in the lead, 16-13.<\/p>\n

Eastern Mennonite responded with a back-breaking run. The men scored four straight and took the lead on a Chris Moise<\/strong> (Hollywood, Fl.\/South Broward) kill. The Mustangs called a timeout but their next attack sailed just out of bounds. The Royals pushed the run to 7-0, taking a 20-16 edge and the wind out of Stevenson’s sails.<\/p>\n

The Mustangs got back within two before EMU closed things out on a 5-1 tear, winning 25-19.<\/p>\n

Moise’s big swings led the way on the attack, as he dropped in a match high 18 kills. The Royals also had 12 service aces as a team, with Moise dropping in three. Greg Knight<\/strong> (Chesapeake, Va.\/Hickory) landed five aces.<\/p>\n

Junior Nolan Prock<\/strong> (Virginia Beach, Va.\/Frank W. Cox) had nine kills, three aces and a match high 15 digs.<\/p>\n

John Barry<\/strong> (Aaron Bridge, Oh.\/Worthington Kilbourne) had 37 assists and four block assists. Frankie Coto<\/strong> (Miami, Fl.\/Southwest Miami) also had four stuffs while libero Kendall Garber<\/strong> (Lancaster, Pa.\/Lancaster Mennonite) was good for 11 digs.<\/p>\n

Austin Jacoby led Stevenson with 16 kills.<\/p>\n

The win is the fourth straight for the Royals, as they are now 6-4 overall. More importantly, EMU is 5-0 in NECVA Metro play and one of just two undefeated teams left in the seven-team division. The men play at Philadelphia Biblical, which is 1-0 in the Metro, this Saturday at 7:00pm.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
