WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
 
  • Hartwick looked to knock off the current leader in the Empire 8 standings on Saturday afternoon on Senior Day.
  • The Hawks went toe-to-toe with Fisher through the first two sets, tying the score twice in the first set despite falling 20-25.
  • In the second set, Hartwick rallied from an early 4-point deficit to take a 6-4 lead behind back-to-back-to-back aces from Shaelyn Thornton (Scarborough, Me.).
  • From there, the lead would change four more times throughout the set.
  • Unfortunately, the Cardinals quickly took a 22-19 advantage into a 25-19 win behind two big blocks.
  • The visiting Cardinals took an early lead in the third set and kept just enough distance between themselves and the Hawks to come away with the 25-15 set win to sweep the match.
  • Kaileigh Brandow (Manoville, N.Y.) led all Hawks in kills with 9.  The senior also recorded six digs.
  • Thornton put away four aces, contributed four kills, and was tied for the team-lead in digs with seven.
  • Vanessa Seymour (Hopewell Junction, N.Y.) and Sarah Petz (Webster, N.Y.) also collected seven digs.  Seymour also assisted on 26 of the team's 28 total kills.
