After falling in three straight sets to the visiting McMaster Marauders on Saturday afternoon, the Lancer men's volleyball team edged the Brock Badgers 3-2 on Sunday for their second win of the season. 
 
Heading into a three game road trip, the Lancers are 2-8 on the season to sit tied for fifth in the west division with the Badgers. 
 
SATURDAY
Windsor came out strong early with big hits from John Moate and Brad Gyemi, however McMaster's starters were able to show their skills and keep the game close throughout the set. A few unlucky errors late in the set for Windsor gave the visitors the 25-22 win.
 
In the second set, Gabriel Burlacu held up the back line for the Lancers against a tough MAC offense, while Pierce Johnson played smart at the net, finding the wear spots in the Marauder defense to tally four kills in the set. Once again however, some late unforced errors put the Lancers behind as the Marauders went on to win the set 25-19.
 
Windsor saw some great defense from Roland Bouchard to keep them neck in neck early in the set. Their high energy and quick feet kept the Marauders on their toes as Windsor fought until the very end. However, McMaster's skill and experience eventually won out as they swept the game 25-21.
 
Johnson led the way for the Lancers with 9 kills and 2 digs, while Gyemi chipped in 7 kills and Moate had 6 kills, 1 block and 3 digs.
 
SUNDAY
The Lancers opened the game with a bang, racking up nine kills and easily taking the first set 25-10. 

Windsor was unable to carry that momentum into the second set, as the Badgers stepped up their passing and got two huge blocks from Matthew Ragogna to complete the set and tie the game. 

In the third, Moate led the Lancers with 5 kills and 3 blocks to help Windsor take the set 25-20 before the Badgers retaliated in the fourth to win the set 25-18 and send it into a deciding set. 

Moate again led the way for the Blue & Gold with some strong hits and consistent serving. The Badgers collected a number of unforced errors late in the set and the Lancers used that to their advantage to seal the win.
