COACH'S CORNER
"We had a good day [against Cobleskill] with a lot of girls getting action on the court where they really played very well.   Adeline [Roeske] went 3-for-4 hitting with a couple of blocks in her first real match time, which is awesome. 
 
"Haley [Unverdorben] continued to move our offense as always and we were very effective.
 
"The Keuka game was Haley's.  She caused all kinds of problems on the service line and she set our hitters in great locations.  It's an amazing feat to surpass 1,000 assists so early in her career.  It really is a testament to how good she is and I can't describe how excited I am to have her lead the way for the foreseeable future!" – Coach Joshua Tompkins
 
UP NEXT
The Highlanders open up Empire 8 Conference play this Friday, September 27 at Elmira College when they will challenge the Soaring Eagles at 6:00 p.m.
