ST. PAUL, Minn. – The University of Northwestern traveled to Crown College to take on the Storm in their final regular season UMAC road match-up. The Eagles defeated Crown in straight sets with scores of 25-18, 25-8 and 25-8.
 
With the win, Northwestern improved to 21-7 overall and 14-1 in the UMAC. The Eagles will take on the University of St. Thomas on Friday before hosting Martin Luther on Saturday in their final regular season league match. The Eagles have locked up at least a share of the conference title, and Saturday's match will determine the conference final results.

A trio of Eagles garnered double-digit kill totals on the night. Senior Freya Hanson (Otsego, Minn./St. Michael-Albertville) led the way with 12 kills, hitting .458 and adding eight digs. Mariah Halvorsen (Plymouth, Minn./Wayzata) and Jenay Fuglestad (Maple Grove, Minn./Heritage Christian) each finished with 11 kills. Fuglestad hit a team-best .526.
