Lady Barons Fall to Carlow University

PITTSBURGH, PA - The Lady Barons of Franciscan University of Steubenville traveled to Carlow on Wednesday night, losing 16-25, 36-38, 12-25.  With the loss, the Lady Barons fell to 3-5 on the season.

Meg Kay led the Lady Barons on the night with 15 kills.  Teresa Marcotte continued her exceptional play at setter with 12 assists, while libero Nicole Henson contributed 16 digs.

"We dug ourselves in a hole early in each of our three games tonight," Lady Barons coach Kelly Herrmann remarked in a post-game interview.  "In the second game we played really well, but a few mistakes cost us.  In the second game we played at our level, but we were unable to play that way in the first or third games.  We just didn't play like winners in this match, we were hesitant and unsure - it's something we really need to work on.  I truly believe that we have all the pieces, we just have to continue to work at piecing them together so that we can get some wins."

The Lady Barons look to rebound against Allegheny Mountain Collegiate Conference opponent Pitt-Bradford in a tri-match at La Roche on Saturday at 1 p.m.
