RICHMOND, Ind. - The Bluffton University volleyball team saw its 2021 season come to an end thanks to a sweep by Earlham College on Saturday, Oct. 30. The Quakers locked up the number 1 seed for the Heartland Conference Tourney with the victory, improving to 19-5 overall and 8-1 in the conference. Bluffton finishes 10-18 with a 2-7 mark in the HCAC.

Following a 25-6 whipping in the lidlifter, Bluffton pushed the Quakers in a 25-23 setback in set two. Earlham left no doubt with a 25-14 victory for the sweep on Senior Day from Richmond, Ind.

Senior Cassidy Posey (Paulding) slammed home seven winners in her final outing as a Beaver. Maddie White (Ashland) handed out 16 assists against the Quakers.

Brooke Kleman (Glandorf/Ottawa-Glandorf) saw her decorated career at Bluffton come to an end with a team-high 15 digs for the visitors.
