Sophomore Emily Papale played a key role in the Urban Knights' 3-2 win at Chaminade on Oct. 30 to start their three-match Hawaii roadtrip this past weekend. Two of Papale's season-high 17 kills came down the stretch in the fifth set against the Silverswords while her second-highest dig total (26) were achieved in the victory. It was her ninth double-double through 24 matches played this season.

Papale nearly achieved two more double-doubles as the road swing continued, going for 14 kills and seven digs in a five-set rematch with Hawaii Pacific on Oct. 31 then nine kills and nine digs against the #5 team in the country, BYU-Hawaii on Nov. 1. For the week, she averaged 3.08 kills and 3.23 digs per set.
