CSE earned its 17th victory of the season and
guaranteed the program a 3rd consecutive record of .500 or better with
a solid 3-0 win versus the Yeshiva Maccabees (25-15, 25-22, 25-16). The win was the Eagles’ 6th
in a row and closed out the season for CSE after an impressive 9W-2L last third
of the season.
The Eagles raced to a 4-0 lead behind the serving of Katie
Cooper and a Subhana Wrights kill and never looked back as CSE kept the
pressure on the Maccabees throughout the set and expanded their lead to 20-11
after a kill by Wrights. Three
service points by Taisha Colon led to three hitting errors by Yeshiva and
closed out the set 25-15.
The second set saw a spirited Maccabees team push the Eagles
squad. Yeshiva’s tough serving had the Eagles out of system struggling to
score. Yeshiva held a 14-8 lead
when CSE ripped off the next 8 points to jump ahead 16-14 behind Katie Cooper’s
serving and the outstanding net presence of Subhana Wrights who notched 3
blocks in the run. Yeshiva kept fighting back, tying the score at 18 but CSE kept
ahead of the Maccabees with a 4-0 run behind Kiana Cunningham who notched a
couple of kills in the run. The
Eagles closed out the set 25-22.
The Eagles jumped out front 10-5 early thanks to Katie
Cooper and Nicole Morera’s serving and seemed in control of the set. But credit Yeshiva for their fighting
spirit as the Maccabees closed to gap to within 1 at 13-12 before the Eagles
responded with a 7-3 run that extended the lead back to 5 at 20-15. Although the Maccabees broke serve, the
Eagles, behind kills by Ireyah Stevens and Katie Cooper, closed out the set on
a 5-0 run to close out the set and match 25-16.
The Eagles hit .295 with 28 kills and hit for 11 aces (5 by
Katie Cooper). Defensively, the
team notched 24 digs in this, CSE’s 17th victory.
