The Quinnipiac volleyball team lost 3-1 against the Iona Gaels on Saturday. The Bobcats’ record moves to 10-6 in conference play, and 11-16 overall.
“The frustrating part is we work really hard,” said Quinnipiac head coach Kyle Robinson. “There’s a lack of focus, there’s a lack of discipline, that is just not acceptable for our team.”
First Set
Iona was able to win the first set in dominant fashion 25-16. Although the Bobcats started off the set hot, quickly jumping out to a 4-1 lead, the Gaels worked their way back to even up the score at seven a piece. From there, Iona never looked back, outscoring the Bobcats 18-9 the rest of the set.
The Bobcats struggled with keeping the ball in play as well as errors, committing eight of them in the first set. Quinnipiac quickly found themselves in a one set deficit on their home court as a result of these mistakes.
“We’re not giving ourselves a chance and that’s the tough part,” said Robinson when asked about the Bobcats’ numerous errors. “Can’t accept just giving away points. We work too hard, they work too hard, that’s the frustrating thing.”
