BRONX, NY - Taking on one of the best teams in the conference, the Yeshiva Women's Volleyball Team fell to Manhattanville University, losing to the Valiants by a score of 3-0 on Thursday, Oct. 29.
The Maccabees were led by the duo of
Leya Dennen and
Emma Lieber. Dennen helmed the attack with two kills, while Lieber locked down the defensive side with 15 digs.
With the result, the Macs are now 1-12, 0-9 in conference play.
HOW IT HAPPENED
- Yeshiva struggled in the first set. The Maccabees were limited to just two points, seeing Manhattanville take the period, 25-2.
- The second set proved a much more competitive affair. Both teams battled back and forth, with the score sitting at 10-all through the first 20 serves. However, from there the Valiants managed to pull away, and while a late Maccabee push sparked hopes of a YU comeback, the effort ultimately came up short, as the Macs fell, 25-19.
- The third set was once again a challenge for the Yeshiva attack. The Maccabees managed only three points, dropping the period, 25-3, and the match, 3-0.
