(Riverdale, NY) – Mount Saint Vincent sophomore
Meghan Flaherty (Yonkers, NY/Yonkers) had a team-high six kills and junior
Roxanne Predergast (Center Moriches, NY/Westhampton Beach HS) added five kills and eight digs, but the Mount Saint Vincent Women's Volleyball team was swept by first place Stevens, 3-0 in a match played at Mount Saint Vincent. Stevens won the three games by scores of 30-13, 30-28, and 30-18 to improve to 23-5 overall and 6-0 in the Skyline Conference. Mount Saint Vincent is now 10-17 overall and 1-6 in the Skyline Conference with one Conference match remaining.
After Stevens stormed through the opening game, the Mount rallied during the second game and made it close, thanks to the inspired play of Lopez and Predergast, who had all three of her service aces during the second game. However, the Mount ultimately became the sixth Skyline team in six matches to get swept by the defending Conference Champions.
For Stevens, freshman Summer Hamilton (San Diego, CA/Bishop's School) had a team-high seven kills, while sophomore Dawn Herring (Prince Frederick, MD/Calvert HS) added five kills, and junior Rachel Ostroff (N. Miami, FL/Miami Country Day) had a match-high 19 digs.
Mount Saint Vincent returns to action on Saturday, Oct. 22 for their final Skyline Conference match of the 2005 season, a road match against Centenary at 1:00 p.m.
