FAYETTEVILLE, N.C. -- The Fayetteville State Lady Broncos got back to their winning ways on Thursday night after dispatching Coker College with ease in straight sets at Felton J. Capel Arena.

LaToya Harvin (Fr., Bell Glade, Fla.) and Ifeyinwa Nwokolo (Jr., Greensboro, N.C.) had a match-high seven kills apiece while JaMisha Jordan (So., Fayetteville, N.C.) led all players with 23 assists to go with four service aces.
