The Bobcats opened up MAC play with two victories over east foes Bowling Green and Miami in the convocation center last week.

Senior Abby Gilleland was a force for the Bobcats with 31 assists, nine digs, and seven kills in last week’s win over Bowling Green. In her match with Miami (OH), she recorded her first triple-double of the season in the 3-1 “Battle of the Bricks” victory. Gilleland had 39 assists, a career high tying 22 digs, and career high 13 kills.

With the Bobcats coming off a perfect record of 16-0 in conference play last year, Gilleland and the Bobcats are headed in the right direction if they want to repeat as MAC champions.
