MORRISTOWN, NJ - Traveling out to New Jersey for their second-to-last non-conference match of the season, the Yeshiva Women's Volleyball Team fell to Saint Elizabeth University, losing to the Eagles by a score of 3-0 on Monday, Nov. 2nd.
The Maccabees were led by
Elle Ohayon, with the senior captain tallying a statline of five kills, four aces, six digs, and one block.
With the result, the Macs are now 1-14, 0-10 in conference play.
HOW IT HAPPENED
- While Yeshiva fell behind early in the first set, seeing the Eagles go up by as many as five points at 13-8, the Maccabees refused to fade, keeping their foe within striking distance at 20-15. Unfortunately, Saint Elizabeth surged late, going on a 5-1 run to close out the set, 25-16.
- The second set proved a back-and-forth affair early on, with the lead changing hands three times before settling at 11-all. From there, the Maccabee offense went cold, managing just four more points before falling, 25-15.
- Despite trailing early, at one point down by eight at 13-5, Yeshiva refused to give up the fight in the third set. Led by kills from Emma Lieber and Eden Rosenstock, the Maccabees clawed their way back, coming within one at 15-14, before tying the contest at 17-all on a Rosenstock ace. This success would not last however, Saint Elizabeth scored the next five points to go up 22-17, and while three straight scores got the Macs within two at 22-20, the comeback effort came up short, as Yeshiva lost the set, 25-20, and the match, 3-0.
