Rebecca Lynch tallies second double-digit assist match in two days.

OAKDALE, N.Y. – Despite the double-digit assist effort by rookie Rebecca Lynch (Oceanside, N.Y.), the Mercy College volleyball team lost its second-straight conference game 0-3 (9-25, 16-25, 16-25) to the Dowling Golden Lions, Thursday night at the Dowling Gymnasium.

With the loss, the Mavericks fall to 0-10 overall and 0-2 in the East Coast Conference. Dowling improved their overall record to 9-4 and are undefeated at 2-0 in the ECC.

Lynch tallied 11 assists in the three-set loss, her second double-assist performance of the week. On Tuesday, at Molloy, Lynch helped set up 27 points to make her week and conference total 38.

Maverick junior Shedeiky Hamilton (Yallahs, Jamaica) scored a team high seven kills and a .538 kill percentage. Senior Sasha Atkins (Bronx, N.Y.) had the team's second highest kills with four.

For the Golden Lions, Patrycja Klekotka (Siedlce, Poland) had a team high 13 service aces, which helped keep the advantage with Dowling for most the match.
