Pittsburgh, Pa.- The Temple volleyball team continued its dominating run, as it posted its fifth straight win, a 3-1 (25-22, 17-25, 26-24, 25-11) victory at Duquesne on Friday night. Senior Yun Yi Zhang posted a double-double with 25 kills and 11 digs for a stellar .420 hitting percentage. Cayleigh Ashman had 13 kills and just two errors for a .450 hitting percentage.

Though the Owls finished strong with a commanding 25-11 win in set four, the Dukes made the visitors earn every point throughout the match.
