From the first serve,  the Hawks (3-6, 1-0 CUNYAC) controled the match. The first set saw both teams battling back-and-forth, but Hunter managed to maintain a slight edge, closing it out at 25-19. Led by the stellar performances of key players like Kyle Foley and Annes Deljanin, Hunter's offense proved too much for the Beavers' (3 -5, 0-2 CUNYAC) defense to handle.

The second set unfolded with the Pruple and Gold continuing its dominance, despite CCNY's efforts to mount a comeback, Hunter held its ground, securing a 25-22 victory in the set. Muhammad Al-Amine Mbaye and Matisse Lee-Maarek delivered crucial points, to aid in the Hawks' 2-0 edge

As the third set commenced, Hunter showed no signs of relenting as the team left CCNY struggling to find momentum. The Hawks sealed the deal with a dominant 25-7 win in the final set, completing a clean sweep of the match.

Al-Amine Mbaye and Annes Deljanin led Hunter with seven kills each, followed by Lee-Maarek with six while Cooper Moran paced the Hawks with 36 assists and five digs. Nick Yao and Sergio Aguado each tallied four addition digs while Lee-Maarek had three blocks in addition to Al-Amine Mbaye and John Pflueger added two a piece. 

The Hawks return to the court on Saturday for the John Jay trimatch as they take on two conference opponents in John Jay and Brooklyn College.
