HUNTINGDON, Pa.- The women's volleyball team picked up two victories as they swept Moravian and Drew in Landmark Conference competition Saturday afternoon at Memorial Gymnasium.

The Eagles completely dominated the opening set against Moravian by hitting .600 while smashing 19 kills to win 25-8. The fourth point of the set was the second kill of the match by Victoria Taylor (Middletown, Del. / Delaware Military Academy), which pushed her across the 1000 kill plateau.

"Kill by Victoria Taylor" are words we will never get tired of hearing in the Memorial Gym...1,000 kills (and counting) for Taylor this afternoon! #GoEagles #WingsUp #TakingFlight #D3vb @NCAAVolleyball @JuniataWVB pic.twitter.com/oLDENQ1U2b
