HAMPTON, VA --- The Howard University volleyball team traveled to Hampton University Sunday afternoon in a battle of the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC) North Division's top two teams. 
 
In the end, the Lady Bison were unable to earn a season split with the Pirates as Howard dropped a 3-0 decision (25-22, 25-11, 25-23) to Hampton.

The setback snapped Howard's four-game winning streak - all against MEAC schools - and dropped the team's overall record to 19-9 (7-3 MEAC). Hampton improved to 14-10 (8-2 MEAC) with the victory.

Freshman Katherine Broussard led the way for Howard with nine kills and a pair of aces. Junior Assata Conway had the Lady Bison's most efficient game, posting a .417 hitting percentage (8-3-12) and added a pair of aces and 1.5 blocks.

Junior Allyson Lods logged a team-high 11 digs, while junior Stephanie Shultis set up 22 of the team's 25 kills in the game.

Howard will take the court again on Friday, November 8 when the squad travels to Morgan State University looking to complete a full three game sweep (home-away-neutral) of the Bears. First serve is scheduled for 7:00 pm.
