After two weekends of tournaments, Pomona-Pitzer hit the road to play the Panthers of Chapman University.  The opening set was a struggle as the Hens hit zero in the 14-25 loss.  In true Hen fashion, they bounced back to take sets two and three convincingly at 25-18 and 25-8 behind the strong serving of Kenzie Aries, Jordan Hammond and Beth Smilkstein.  Aries started the third set off with an 8-point run before the Panthers were able to side out.  In the two middle sets, Carly Hite led the team with 9 kills while Hammond tallied 6.  The team hit .237 (12-3-38) to Chapman's .154 (16-6-39) in set two with a much more dramatic difference of .357 (12-2-28) to -.139 (5-10-36) in set three, which was brought on by the tough serving of the Sagehens.

The fourth set was a see-saw battle with eleven ties and seven lead changes.  The balanced attack from Hammond (4 kills), Hughes (3 kills) and Hite (3 kills) helped the Sagehens come away with the victory.  Hite led the attack with 14 kills (team high .208 hitting percentage) and 7 digs, with Hammond close behind with 11 kills and 4 service aces.  Eleanor Hughes added 10 kills, 11 digs and 2 blocks for her seventh double-double of the season.  Kenzie Aries had 32 assists and libero Heidi Leonard had a team high 21 digs.  Lauren Kim contributed 15 digs while Beth Smilkstein added 10 digs and 2 service aces in the win.
