A Well Rounded Effort Leads the Red Foxes to Victory

POUGHKEEPSIE, NY – The Red Foxes picked up a victory against Manhattan, defeating the Jaspers in four sets. Marist saw great contributions from its freshmen, with the group accounting for 13 kills. With the win, Marist has a winning record for the first time since the start of the season, sitting at 9-8 and 6-1 in conference play.
 
SUMMARY
Manhattan started the set 5-0, as the Red Foxes were unable to counter some well-placed kills from the Jaspers. The Red Foxes tied it up at 11 all, when a couple of attach errors fell in their favor.
Marist landed six unanswered kills, with four coming from Chidera Udeh, to go up 17-12. Marist kept the momentum the rest of the way, winning set one 25-17.

Set three remained tight with both teams exchanging leads throughout the set. A kill from Lauren Waide put the Red Foxes at set point at 24-22, but Manhattan responded and got the ball back to serve. The Jaspers sent the ball to the end of the court and almost landed a kill, Morgan Owens sailed the ball back to Manhattan and Sarah Austin closed the set with a kill.

QUOTE
"We got some reps for some kids who don't get a lot of floor time and they got some good close game experience and I think it will be good for us down the road." Said Head Coach Lauren Amundson, "As we look to tomorrow, we've got some unforced errors to clean up. I'd like to tighten our blocking and defensively, there were some balls we could make stops on"
