Brooklyn (15-13, 5-2 CUNYAC) reaches the conference semifinals after sweeping Lehman in convincing fashion in the quarterfinal round on Tuesday. Baruch received a bye to tomorrow's match for finishing second in the regular season standings with a 6-1 CUNYAC mark. The Bearcats defeated Brooklyn in a close battle during the regular season, 3-1 (25-16, 19-25, 25-21, 25).
Led offensively by 2019 CUNYAC Rookie of the Year,
Ashley Fung, and fellow freshman and 2nd Team CUNYAC All-Star,
Madison Cronk, the Bulldogs will still be relying heavily on sophomore setter and 1st Team CUNYAC All-Star,
Ezri Shor, and junior libero and 2nd Team CUNYAC All-Star,
Yana Shaposhnikova, to steer the ship having played in the conference semifinals last year. The Bulldogs' middle core of sophomore,
Megan Ortiz-Mengedoht, and junior,
Nohelia Cedeno, will look to slow down conference Player of the Year, Anita Sengara.
