Women's volleyball splits Ivy League matches at home

By Nate Niparko | October 24, 2005

The Big Green volleyball team returned to its early season form this weekend, posting a strong effort against powerhouse Cornell and cruising to a three-game sweep against Columbia. The two home matches end the team's three-week road swing, and Saturday's win over Columbia marks the end of a five-match losing slide. Dartmouth (10-8, Ivy 3-5) entered the weekend's play coming off of a pair of painful losses, losing a heartbreaking five-game marathon to Brown and a hapless sweep at the hands of Yale. On Friday night, the Big Green lost their match to Cornell (14-3, Ivy 7-0), but showed a poise that could come in handy during the rest of the season. After the Big Red claimed the first two games of the match by convincing margins (30-23, 30-21), Dartmouth battled back.
