KENOSHA, Wis. - The Davenport women's volleyball team suffered a tough five-set loss at Parkside on Saturday, but not to be overshadowed was a record-breaking performance from freshman setter,
Nicole Odeen. Odeen finished with 45 assists, 11 digs and 10 service aces for the triple-double, the first by a Division II player this season to include aces. Those 10 aces by Odeen are also a new school record, breaking the old mark of nine set by Helena Steig set in 2007. On record, the last Panther triple-double was from Amber Getty on Oct. 26, 2013 (10 kills, 42 assists and 16 digs).
FINAL: Parkside 3, Davenport 2 (25-13, 23-25, 25-16, 22-25, 9-15)
RECORDS: Davenport 8-6, Parkside 4-10
