## What happened

The sweep was built on point economy, not kill volume. Mars Hill finished with 42 kills to Newberry’s 41, but Newberry committed six fewer attack errors and won the block 9-3.

That difference mattered because every set was within four points. Newberry won the two 25-23 endings, then kept Mars Hill from extending the match in a 25-21 third.

## Key contributors

- Newberry: Symone Wyatt 12 kills; Maggie Helle 11; Emma Coffman 6 blocks; Hailey Clayworth 17 digs.
- Mars Hill: Megan Lee Prezio and Morgan Yoder 10 kills each; Alyssa Kornegay 37 assists; Caroline Barber 15 digs.

## What matters next

Newberry can carry forward the block-and-error profile. Mars Hill’s cleanup is narrow but important: retain the offensive volume while trimming the six-error gap that decided three close sets.
