The FLC women's volleyball team opened Big 8 Conference play with a 3-set sweep of Diablo Valley on Friday night at Falcon Gym, 25-16, 25-15, & 25-18.   With Kylie Haverson racking up 19 kills, the Falcons dominated the Vikings throughout the match.  Hitter Kate Nicknig added 8 kills, freshman Deonna Robinson recorded 14 digs, and setter Samantha Hegseth had 37 assists to go with 12 digs.  Head coach Matt Torrez was able to use his entire roster – with 9 players playing at least 2 sets - as the Falcons improved to 7-1 overall and 1-0 in the Big 8. 

This week, the Falcons will play at Cosumnes River on Tuesday night, then host Lassen College in a non-conference match on Friday afternoon at 2:00 pm.
