Season Update

Hamilton (8-7, 4-4 NESCAC) had swept its previous two conference opponents in three sets.
The Mules (13-5, 6-2) won their sixth straight match and improved to 8-0 at home.

How It Happened

After three ties and a lead change early in the first set, Colby ran off seven straight points and turned a 13-12 deficit into a commanding 19-13 lead. The Mules led comfortably the rest of the set.
In the second set the Continentals tallied the first four points and this time they hung on to their advantage. The outcome was still in doubt as Hamilton held a four-point cushion at 16-12, but the Continentals tallied the next three on blocks by Drew Stimson '25 and Melissa Morelli '24, and an ace by Summer McClintic '24. A kill by Elodie McGeiver '27 closed out the set.
The third and fourth sets were tense, back-and-forth affairs. There were nine ties and five lead changes in the third alone. Trailing 24-22, Hamilton staved off two set points on a Caitlin Allen '27 kill and a Colby attack error. The Mules recovered and clinched the set thanks to a kill by Sarah Friedrichs and an attack error by the Continentals. Colby posted a .389 hitting percentage (17-3-36) for the set.
A kill by McClintic forced the seventh tie in the fourth set at 21-21, but Colby took the lead for good with a solo block by Hannah Wyllie and a Friedrichs kill. Hamilton fought off one match point, but Moseley finished things off with a kill on a pass from Gabby Grujic.
