Falcons Named Kristen Dickmann Invitational Champions
August 27, 2011 | Volleyball
Bowling Green, Ohio - By virtue of a 2-0 record and sweep of both matches, the Bowling Green State University volleyball team was named the champions of the Kristen Dickmann Invitational at Navy over the weekend. Danielle Tonyan earned tournament Most Valuable Player honors and Emily Kauth was named to the all-tournament team.
Bowling Green and St. John's both went 2-0 in the hurricane-shortened event, but the Falcons won both matches in straight sets while St. John's needed four sets to beat Iona, giving the Orange and Brown the championship.
Tonyan, a sophomore right side hitter, received her first career all-tournament honor and was named MVP. She had 16 kills and a .536 attack percentage in the team's three-set sweep of Air Force, adding three blocks. She followed that up with a team-high 11 kills and totaled three aces and two blocks in a sweep of host Navy. In all, she averaged 4.50 kills per set and hit .418.
Kauth, a senior middle, also earned her first all-tournament honor by posting a team-high nine blocks in two matches. She was also perfect on 13 serve-receive attempts, had nine kills, and attacked at a .400 clip. In the win over Air Force, she had three kills and five blocks before posting six kills and four blocks in the win over Navy.
