The Muhlenberg volleyball team recorded one of its most dominating wins ever in a sweep of Bryn Mawr.
The Mules (12-10, 4-4) allowed only 32 points in the 25-10, 25-9, 25-13 victory - the fourth-fewest since the start of 25-point scoring in 2001. It was the fewest points Muhlenberg ever allowed in a Centennial Conference match, two below the total of 34 in a 25-12, 25-10, 25-12 sweep of Bryn Mawr in 2017.
More importantly, the win put Muhlenberg squarely in the race for one of the six CC playoff berths. With matches against Washington (2-5) and Franklin & Marshall (5-2) remaining, the Mules are in sixth place, a half-game behind Haverford, who they defeated last week.
