Slow Start Dooms Griffins In Loss To Albright

GWYNEDD VALLEY, PA. -- Gwynedd Mercy was frustrated by Albright as the Lions swept the Griffins, 3-0, Tuesday evening at The Griffin Complex. Set scores were 25-10, 25-18, and 25-21.

As a team, GMercyU hit below .000 for the third time this season while making 31 hitting errors, tying a season-high. For the night, Gwynedd posted a 26-31-104 (-.048) hitting line.

The first two sets saw Albright get out to big leads early on, taking advantage of the Griffin miscues.  In the first, the team had just four kills and would never lead in the set. The second got off to a similar start unfortunately, as the Lions raced out to a 10-1 lead.

In the third, Gwynedd (8-9) started to click offensively, as Casey Griffith started heating up, notching six of her match-high 13 kills in the frame. The team, who would trail 8-4, put together a run to take their first lead (9-8). Albright would come right back with five-straight points and later lead 20-13 to force a Gwynedd timeout. The Griffins cut it to 20-17 and again at 24-21 but could pull no closer.

Griffith also added 14 digs, a game high, for her eighth double-double this season.  Laura Kirk also reached double figures in digs with 13 while Liz Schule chipped in six kills, two aces, and a block.

Maddy Greth and Cheyenne Robinett each posted seven kills for Albright (3-12).

The Griffins are right back at it here on Thursday when they host Moravian starting at 7 p.m.
