Atlanta, GA -- The Piedmont College volleyball team had little trouble rolling to a 3-0 victory over local rival Oglethorpe University this evening on the road.  A balanced attack and solid defensive play gave the Lady Lions their seventh victory of the season and improved their record against teams from the state of Georgia to 2-2.

After swiping a 25-21 win in the first set of tonight's match with the Stormy Petrels, the Lady Lions would not look back cruising to a 25-19 victory in set number two.  PC then closed out the match in the third set with a 25-18 decision to defeat the home team.
