Holy Family was led by junior hitter Kelly Nepi with 5 kills and 8 digs. Freshman Michelle Copelli assisted on 11 of the Lady Tigers? kills. Le Moyne was statistically spread out as sophomore setter Julie McLaud assisted 33 times. Eight different Le Moyne players registered more than 3 kills for the match. Junior Amanda McClure was able to get things going for the Dolphins as she dug 25 balls.

The second match of the day featured Le Moyne taking on Bloomfield College. Le Moyne completed the perfect day, as they swept Bloomfield 3-0 (30-20, 30-15, 30-13). Le Moyne was again led by McLaud, who finished with 26 assists. Junior hitter Lindsey Fattey paced the Dolphins with 9 kills.

The final match of the day saw Holy Family taking on Bloomfield in a CACC matchup. Bloomfield was able to come away with the conference victory 3-1 (18-30, 30-27, 24-30, 25-30). Sheen was too much for the Lady Tigers to handle, as she had 35 kills, 12 digs, 3 service aces, and a .291 attack percentage. Senior setter Shana Lemon assisted on 48 on the Deacons? 61 kills. The Lady Tigers received 12 kills and 20 digs from Nepi, and 28 assists from senior Melissa Zebley.
