CHESTERTOWN, MD- The Bryn Mawr volleyball team traveled to Maryland on Wednesday night for a Centennial Conference matchup against Washington College. The Owls showed stretches of strong defensive effort but ultimately fell to the Shorewomen in three sets (6-25, 13-25, 14-25).
Highlights:
- Junior outside hitter Emma Loller led the Bryn Mawr offense with six kills. Sophomore Tula Reihman chipped in two kills and posted the Owls' lone block of the evening, while Elise Perry, Adelaide Grace, and Saya Feldman each added a kill of their own to round out the Owls' attack.
- At the setter position, Anna Dravk directed the offense with seven assists and contributed a service ace, while Charlotte Mullen added two assists and helped spark several late-set rallies. On the defensive end, Feldman anchored the back row with a team-high seven digs, while Dravk and Loller each chipped in four.
- After a quick start by Washington in the opening frame, Bryn Mawr began to find its rhythm in the second set. The Owls built momentum off a service run from Dravk that included an ace and forced several attacking errors from the Shorewomen. Loller and Reihman combined for key kills to help Bryn Mawr reach double digits before Washington closed the set with a late push.
- Bryn Mawr carried that energy into the third, trading points early behind kills from Loller and Feldman. A strong defensive stretch helped the Owls close within a few points midway through the set, but Washington responded with a final run to secure the match.
