PATCHOGUE, N.Y. - The Purchase College women's volleyball team was defeated by St. Joseph's University-Long Island Monday evening, dropping the Skyline Conference matchup in straight sets.

Set scores for the contest were 25-7, 25-13 and 25-12.

With the loss, the Panthers moved to 2-15 overall and 1-6 in the league. For the Golden Eagles, they improved to 11-8 and 5-2, respectively. 

From the get-go Monday, St. Joseph's University jumped out to a big advantage and never let the Panthers get close.

In all three sets, the hosts built leads of at least 10 points each time, and had five separate four-point runs in the win.

Purchase's offense struggled to match the output of the Golden Eagles, as it hit -.120 on the night and tallied just nine kills. 

Individually, Lilith Bastek-Ochoa (SO/Sag Harbor, NY) recorded four kills and seven digs, while Karina Medina (SR/Brooklyn, NY) added three kills and six assists in the effort.
