DELHI, N.Y. (September 21, 2021) - SUNY Delhi women's volleyball returned to the three-set victory trail Tuesday night in a 3-0 home win over Keystone. Of the Broncos' five victories this season, this is their third straight triumph in straight sets. Delhi improves to 5-3 on the season.

Head coach Beau Bracchy's entire roster checked into the game Tuesday, offering a balanced scoring system that produced Bailee Jones as the team's kill leader with a modest four through two sets with a .571 kill percentage. Grace Thomas led with nine digs and four service aces through a pair of frames on a night where Delhi landed 16 total aces. The Broncos won the first two sets with swift 25-11 and 25-9 victories before the starters gave way to their opportunistic teammates in the third set, which they claimed, 25-18.

Tuesday's win kicked off a busy stretch for SUNY Delhi, where the green and gold will play seven matches over the next nine days. It continues Thursday with a home 7:00 p.m. contest versus Clarks Summit, then a Saturday stay at the Worcester State Tournament, facing Fitchburg State and the host Lancers at 3:00 p.m. and 5:00 p.m., respectively. Delhi returns home Monday to face Elmira at 6:00 p.m. before opening its NAC West season at SUNY Cobleskill Wednesday, Sept. 29 at 7:00 p.m. and home versus Cazenovia Thursday, Sept. 30 at 7:00 p.m.
