Bronx, N.Y. – The Lehman College women's volleyball team dropped a four set non-conference encounter (17-25, 32-30, 12-25, 14-25) to visiting John Jay College on Thursday evening at The APEX Main Gym.  The Lightning drop to 1-4 overall record, while the Bloodhounds improve to 4-0 mark.

After losing the first set, Lehman trailed 9-3 early in the second game before going on a 29-21 run to even the match.  However, the Lightning dropped the next two sets to the Bloodhounds.

Outside hitter Daria Hernandez led the Lehman offense with eight kills, while teammate Selena Mitchell had six kills and middle blocker Sky Mercado hit five kills.  Libero Andrea Alarcon grabbed 17 digs, while setter Heder Rodriguez was a dig shy of 'double-double' as she had nine along with 16 assists.
