Head Coach Ryan Baker
(on match)
"We once again showed that we have a team of fighters. Navy started off slow and we did a great job controlling the first two sets. Navy is a really good team and I knew that they would bounce back. Kate Reilly had a huge impact in the 5th set for us. It was a huge League win for us.
 
Up Next
- Colgate returns to action Saturday when it travels to Bethlehem, Pa., to face Lehigh in 4 p.m. match.
