READING, Pa. -- Robie Moctezuma, Quinn Baily and Austin Braas each recorded 10 kills as the No. 13 Arcadia men's volleyball team swept Alvernia 3-0 on Wednesday evening.
 
The 13th-ranked Knights moved to 16-4 overall and 6-0 in the MAC with the win while the Golden Wolves slipped to 4-10 on the year and 1-4 within the conference. Arcadia won 25-18, 25-23, 15-15.
 
The score of the first set wasn't indicative of how strong AU opened up. The Knights took an early 8-1 lead, used a late 6-0 run to go from up five (16-11) to up 11 (22-11), and after taking a 24-13 lead, saw the Golden Wolves run off four straight points before an attack error sealed the match for the Knights.
 
In the second set, the Golden Wolves led 10-7, but the Knights roared back with a 6-1 run to take a 13-11 lead following an attack error by the home team. Alvernia came back and tied the set at 17-17, but AU took the lead for good on a Braas kill, followed by a Jarod Pichler service ace and a Golden Wolves attack error to make it 20-17.
 
The Knights were never truly threatened in the third set, taking a 2-1 lead and never trailing in the clinching set. Braas closed out the win with his 10th kill of the night, the 10th time this season that he has reached at least 10 kills.
 
Moctezuma hit .692 for the match while Braas, the nation's leader in hitting percentage, hit .500 on the evening. Anthony Devantier led AU with 34 assists and added a pair of service aces, while Edwin Waters Jr. had three blocks. Jason Manley and Baily led AU with 12 and 11 digs, respectively.
 
Arcadia hosts a tri match on Saturday against Messiah and Elizabethtown beginning at 1 p.m.
