No one could be more excited about returning to Poughkeepsie than the Marist volleyball team.

The Red Foxes saw their record drop to 9-7 after losing to Providence 3-2 and Harvard 3-0, on the road. Their 16 games so far have been against non-conference competition.

In Friday's game against the Providence Friars, Marist was buoyed by the best performance of freshman Christy Lukes' young career. Lukes posted seven blocks and 12 kills out of 19 attempts, for a lofty .632 prcent. Marist struggled to maintain their momentum throughout the match and ended up losing their first, third, and fifth games.

Sophomores Jaime Kenworthy, Stefanie Miksch and Sally Hanson posted 15, 16, and 16 kills respectively while combining for six blocks and 25 digs.

The next day, Marist lost three straight games to the Harvard Crimson by scores of 30-22, 30-21, and 30-19. Miksch shone once again with 10 kills and 13 digs, while junior Meghan Cochrane had an eye-popping 33 assists.

They will play the second game of their homestand at 6 p.m., Friday Oct. 8, at the McCann Center.
