Playing its final non-conference match of the 2018 regular season on Tuesday evening, the UNC volleyball team pulled out a clean 3-0 sweep on the road over the Elon Phoenix (25-20, 25-18, 25-18).
Destiny Cox led the Tar Heels (4-5) with 10 kills in the match, while Ava Bell was next on the list with six kills of her own. Hunter Atherton took on most of the playmaking load, by setting up 22 of UNC’s 33 total kills in the match.
After falling behind in the first set, the Tar Heels rallied to tie things up at 11-11 before eventually winning it. From there, it was smooth sailing in each of the final two sets–giving the team a much-needed victory heading into ACC play.
