CCNY defeats Purchase in three sets

PURCHASE, NY – The visiting City College of New York Beavers defeated Purchase College, 3-0, in a non-conference match-up on Saturday. Set scores were 25-16, 25-21 and 25-14.

Purchase (3-3) was first to strike in the opening set. Sophomore outside hitter recorded her first solo block of the season after going up against visiting outside hitter Rachel Ramirez. 

Both sides exchanged points in the plays to follow. Trailing by one point, CCNY (2-5) went on a 12-3 run to take a commanding 17-9 lead. The Beavers closed out the opening set, 25-16, with a three-set rally.

The Panthers bounced back to start the second set. A Pamella Gonzalez (JR/Brooklyn, NY) kill followed by a CCNY attacking error put Purchase ahead, 7-6, but the lead was short-lived as visitors pushed back with four straight scores. CCNY held the advantage for the remainder of the set en route to the 25-21 win.

Purchase struggled to find its rhythm in the third set while CCNY's offense continued to ignite. PC saw its weakest hitting performances and would later close the set, 25-14, in defeat.  

City's Nicole Polanco led the way with a match-high 16 kills and and 13 digs. Rached Ramirez finished with a .250 attacking percentage after collecting 10 kills, while Dzeneta Harambasic tallied a match-best 33 assists.

Senior co-captain and middle blocker Joetta Francis led the offensive effort for Purchase with seven kills (.190). Gonzalez added four kills and seven digs, while sophomore libero Skyla Schoppmeyer (Oakdale, NY) chipped in with two kills and a team-best 11 digs. Freshman setter Esmee Johns assisted on all but two of Purchase's 19 kills.

PC looks to bounce back when it returns to Skyline action this week. The Panthers are set to take on league foe Maritime College this Monday at 7 p.m.
