HANOVER, Vt. - Junior Kellie Cramm (Laguna Beach, Calif.) led Princeton with 20 kills and 27 digs as the women's volleyball team stayed alive in the Ivy League race with a comeback 3-2 win at Dartmouth. The Big Green led the match 1-0 and 2-1, but Princeton rallied with a 32-30 win in the fourth game before coasting to a 15-7 win in the decisive fifth game.
Senior Abby Studer (Signal Mountain, Ga.) recorded 19 kills, eight blocks and made only two hitting errors, while classmate Michelle Buffum (San Jose, Calif.) added 12 kills and 24 digs. Freshman Lauren Grumet (Summerland, Calif.) was another effective hitter for the Tigers, killing 15 balls while making only two errors.
Princeton setter Jenny Senske (Long Beach, Calif.) had 59 assists for the Tigers, who are now two matches behind Penn with three to play. Penn knocked off Harvard 3-0, giving Penn one loss in the league. Princeton and Penn meet Nov. 20 at Dillon Gym. For that match to have any title implications, Princeton must gain ground next weekend. Both teams will host Brown and Yale.
