For the first time this season, the Maryville volleyball stretched a victory streak to three as it won all three matches at the Mizuno Crossover Tournament held in Aurora, Ill. The Saints defeated Lake Erie 3-1 to open the tourney, then swept Ursuline and Ohio Dominican, respectively, to close action Saturday.
