Men’s Volleyball Tripped Up by CCNY

BROOKLYN, N.Y. — The St. Joseph's College (Brooklyn) men's volleyball team (0-7) suffered a straight-set setback (25-13, 25-16, 25-17) to City College of New York (3-1) at The Hill Center on Tuesday evening. Senior Tim Driscoll (Staten Island, N.Y./St. Peter's) paced SJC with seven kill and three aces.
