WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — It was a slide — swift, graceful, effective.
Yadhira Anchante had to move faster than her feet would allow in order to control senior Aubrey Hamilton’s receive and get the ball to outside hitter Jenna Reitsma before it hit the ground. So the junior setter slid across the court, got under the ball and forced it up against her momentum to an awaiting Reitsma.
“It was a perfect set,” Reitsma said about the play after the game.
The result of the pass was a Marquette point in the second frame of its 3-0 win over Eastern Illinois Thursday night.
