Hallie Morse and Jaimie Dorfman collected 13 and 11 assists, respectively, while splitting time at setter while Anna Moore tallied nine kills. With the win the Bulldogs improve to 6-6 on the season while NCCU falls to 0-12.
Asheville earned a 25-20 victory in the first set, winning on a kill by Miller. The second set saw the Bulldogs 25-16, scoring the final point on a block by Moore and Holly Shelton. In the third set a ball-handling error by Jzima-Malaki Kalao gave the Bulldogs a 25-20 set win.
The Eagles were led on offense by Shantal Moore who tallied a team-high 11 kills. Kalao posted 22 assists and Raven King tallied seven digs to lead NCCU.
