PURCHASE, N.Y. - The Purchase College women's volleyball team was defeated Monday night, falling to Sarah Lawrence College in a Skyline Conference matchup.

With the result, the Panthers are now 3-10 overall and 0-3 in the league. For the Gryphons, they moved to 10-5 and 4-1, respectively.

To begin, the hosts looked good, scoring three of the first four points of the night. But the guests quickly rebounded, taking the lead for good after scoring five of the next seven points.

In set two, Sarah Lawrence used two big scoring runs to race out to a 16-3 advantage, before the Blue and Orange pulled off two runs of their own to trim the margin to 23-19 late.

Finally, the last frame was close early on until a late run from the Gryphons sealed the victory on the night.
