Lady Monarchs Drop Weekend ‘Royal Rivalry’ Series Against James Madison in Straight-Sets

Senior Tessa Matti goes up for the hit in match against James Madison

Over the weekend, the Old Dominion Volleyball team welcomed James Madison to town for a pair of matches in their annual ‘Royal Rivalry’ series. Both contests were competitive, but the Dukes would go on and win both matches in straight sets. After securing both games last year in Harrisonburg, VA, and this weekend, the Dukes lead the series 4-0.

With the defeat, ODU ended their four-game homestand 0-4 and are on a five-match losing streak. The Lady Monarchs are now 9-11 (1-5 Sun Belt) on the season, whereas the Dukes are now 13-4 (6-0 Sun Belt).
