SALISBURY, Md. – The Marymount (Va.) University women's volleyball team hit the road for the last time in the regular season on Wednesday night, falling to Salisbury University, 3-1  (17-25, 25-17, 18-25, 14-25), in a Capital Athletic Conference tilt.

Salisbury broke the match open with the next two sets to seal up the 3-1 victory. 

Margaret led the Saints for the match with nine kills along with a team-high .368 kill percentage, while senior Courtney Phung led the defensive front with a match-high 12 digs. Sophomore Christine Tieman sent out a majority of the assists for Marymount, registering 19 through the four sets. 

The women will now travel back home for the regular-season finale and senior day on Saturday, October 31 against the top ranked team in the league, Christopher Newport University. The match is set to begin at 12 p.m.
