Cardinals Rally Past John Jay for Sixth Straight Victory

NEW YORK, N.Y. — The York College men's volleyball team earned its sixth straight victory Thursday night in comeback fashion, defeating John Jay College by a score of 3-1 (16-25, 26-24, 25-16, 25-20).
 
Led by a 20-kill performance from sophomore Randy Adams, the Cardinals overcame dropping the first set and took the next three to win the match.  Adams hit .250 with 13 digs, three blocks and three aces, in addition to his 20 kills. 
 
Edner Geffrard also had a double-double with 11 kills and 12 digs and Sebastien Francois added 12 kills (.308) and seven digs.  Freshman Anson Webb chipped in seven kills and five total blocks and libero Paramvir Singh had another solid defensive match, recording a match-high 14 digs.  Setter Androw Soliman had a career-night, finishing with 44 assists.
 
Following a sloppy first set, where York committed seven hitting errors and four service errors, the Cardinals were in danger of going down 2-0, with the second set going down to the wire.   The score was tied at 24-24, but York got a kill from Geffrard and then a hitting error by John Jay to even up the match.
 
The third set was all York, thanks to an 8-2 run that took the score from 11-11 to 19-13.  The Cardinals also won the fourth set comfortably, after they jumped out to a 17-11 advantage and never looked back.
 
The win improves York's record to 12-13 overall and 11-2 in CUNYAC play.  John Jay drops to 9-6 overall, 8-4 CUNYAC.  It was an important conference win for York, as they now have a two-game lead over the Bloodhounds for third place in the CUNYAC standings. 
 
York returns to John Jay College this Saturday but will not face the Bloodhounds.  York play in a quad match there, taking on #4 Juniata College at 11 a.m. and St. Joseph's College (Brooklyn) at 1 p.m.
