SU volleyball splits home tourney matches
With home court advantage, Syracuse volleyball had hopes of improving on its .500 season so far; however, that didn’t play at Friday’s second-day action for the Syracuse Tournament.
The Orange started Friday with a solid performance against Hofstra winning 3-1 as four Orange players — Polina Shemanova, Bre Walp, Viktoriia Lokhmanchuk and Naomi Franco — had at least 10 kills each.
In the evening match, Yale swept the Orange 3-0 that concluded with a close 25-22 final set.
On Thursday, the Orange battled Army, but came up short in a 3-1 loss. The tournament wrapped up Saturday with Hofstra playing both Army and Yale.
Syracuse (4-5) next travels to Storrs, Connecticut on Friday to play Bryant as part of the Dog Pound Challenge hosted by Connecticut.
Syracuse's Viktoriia Lokhmanchuk (23) jumps to serve against the Yale Bulldogs on Friday.
SU's Alyssa Bert (3) prepares to bump the ball against Yale in the Women's Building on Friday night.
