PLESANTVILLE, N.Y. – Opening Northeast 10 Conference play on the road, Pace University Women’s Volleyball fell to Adelphi University in four sets on Tuesday night. The Setters took the opening frame but were unable to sustain the momentum, dropping the match by set scores of 25-23, 10-25, 19-25, and 18-25. Pace now stands at 8-4 overall and 0-1 in NE10 play.

Pace started strong, using a balanced attack to claim the first set, 25-23. The Setters hit efficiently in the opening frame and held off a late push from the Panthers to take a 1-0 match lead. Adelphi responded decisively in the second set, limiting Pace’s offense and pulling away early to even the match with a 25-10 win.

The third set was closely contested midway through, but a late run by the Panthers pushed them ahead for a 25-19 victory and a 2-1 match edge. In the fourth, Pace battled to stay within reach, but Adelphi capitalized on timely points down the stretch to close out the match, 25-18.

With the defeat, the Setters look to build momentum as they shift their focus fully to conference play.
