Bethlehem, Pa. - (9/14/2024) - Gwynedd Mercy University (4-4) traveled to Moravian University (5-5) taking part in their first tri-match of the season. In game one, the Griffins took on the Greyhounds where a back-and-forth affair would eventually lead to a Moravian victory over the red and gold after a five-set series. In game two, Gwynedd Mercy took on Maritime College (1-5) as the Griffins quickly took care of the Privateers 3-0. In the two games combined fifth year outside hitter Bria Purnell (Reading, Pa.) finished with a team-high 31 kills including a season-high 22 kills against Moravian.  

Griffins Highlights vs Moravian University: 

  • In set one, the Griffins got out to an early 6-0 lead against the Greyhounds, but a back-and-forth grudge allowed Moravian to cut the lead to 24-20 in favor of the red and gold. Junior defensive specialist Charlotte Pugh (Philadelphia, Pa.) would end the hopes for a comeback as she would tally the final kill in set one with a final score of 25-20.  
  • Gwynedd Mercy's best-hitting percentage came in the first set with a .533 percentage, however, in the next four sets the errors started to come forward. In the next four sets the Griffins would hit a .182, -.054, .097, and .158.  
  • Junior setter Ayanna Gaston (Middletown, Del.) finished with season-highs in assists (41), points (8), aces (5), and blocks (3).  

Griffins Highlights vs Maritime College: 

  • After a heartbreaking loss to Moravian, Gwynedd Mercy came out with an edge on their shoulders as the team would go up 14-9 early against the Privateers in the first set. Both Purnell and sophomore outside hitter Kate Etter (Chambersburg, Pa.) put the finishing touches in set one giving the Griffins an early 1-0 advantage.  
  • The next two sets would see resilience from Maritime College; however, the Griffins would prevail and complete the 3-0 sweep.  
  • Purnell finished with nine kills while Etter had eight.  
  • Gwynedd Mercy finished with nine aces including three from Etter and two from Gaston while the Privateers only had five.
