Throggs Neck, NY – Wednesday night in Throggs Neck, the Privateers put out a huge effort while missing two key starters, one unable to play due to an ankle injury and the other under the weather. Yet in the end they just couldn’t overcome the Cyclones of Centenary College as they fell three games to none in this Skyline Conference women’s volleyball match. The Privateers kept each game close 30-23, 30-22, 30-20, and held leads on several occasions.
