Box Score 1 | Box Score 2 | Box Score 3 NEW YORK, NY --- Howard Volleyball put on an impressive showing this weekend, winning two of three games at the St. Francis Brooklyn Terrier Invitational in Brooklyn Heights, NY. After dropping their first match on Friday against Rider University, the Lady Bison would sweep Saturday's action with a five-set triumph over host St. Francis and a three-set sweep of New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT).

When asked about the road trip and the week overall (which included a 3-1 home win over LaSalle), Head Coach Shaun Kupferberg said, "We are happy to finish the week 3-1, but can still see there is a lot of work ahead of us.  The potential is there, but there is a lot of hard work ahead of us if we want to accomplish our goals this year."

Katherine Broussard led Howard in kills with 16, while Dominique Cleggett & Jaleeza Stoudermire recorded 8 kills apiece.
