New York, NY – On Thursday, February 10, the men's volleyball team played host to the Beavers of CCNY in a conference matchup. After falling in the first set, 25-20, the Hawks rallied and blazed through the next three sets 25-12, 25-12, 25-18 on the strength of double digit kills from three different players. With the win, Hunter advances to 5-7, 4-1 CUNYAC while the Beavers drop to 3-10, 2-3 CUNYAC.

Although CCNY was outhit in the first set, 14 kills to nine, and with the help of nine Hawk errors, the Beavers managed to reach the 25 point summit first and take the opening set by five.

They then took the third set by the same score to head into the fourth and final set where a .667 hitting percentage powered them through, 25-18, securing their fifth win of the season.

Eric Barty (12 kills), Braien Otsla (10 kills) and John Gemegah (14 kills) led the Hawks as each of the three recorded double digit kills while setter Stanley Martinez tallied a game high in assists with 36.
