WATERBURY, Conn.-Junior Kerry Smith joined the 1,000-dig club at Post University, as the volleyball team fell to East Stroudsburg University, 3-0 (30-17, 30-28, 30-26) on Thursday evening at the Drubner Center.

Smith, who three days ago recorded her 700^th career kill, registered her first double-double of the season with 16 kills and 18 digs to lead the Eagles on the evening. She entered the match, 11 digs, and reached that mark mid-way through the second game of the match.
