Gator netters split results at Oswego tri-match


Oswego, NY – The Sage Colleges' women's volleyball team travelled to Oswego State for a tri-match with the host Lakers and Alfred University. Oswego took the first match, 3-0 (25-20, 25-12, 25-12) but defeated Alfred in the nightcap, 3-1 (23-25, 25-20, 25-15, 25-16). The Gators are now 12-15 on the season.

Against Oswego, junior Helen Putriment (Troy, NY/Cobleskill-Richmondville) tallied five kills, while rookie Michayla Berard (Binghamton, NY/Susquehanna Valley) added four kills for Sage, while junior Katelyn Drollette (Cadyville, NY/Saranac) had nine digs and now has 975 career digs, which is No. 13 on the career list as she moved ahead of Johanna Eckl (1997-2000) with 974 on Saturday.

In the final match, the Gators went four sets but tallied the win as Putriment had 14 kills and now has 938 career kills, which stands No. 5 in the Gators career record book. She is poised to become the first player since     the 2007 season to have 1,000 career digs and 1,000 career kills. The last player to achieve the feat was Catelyn Samoranski, who had 1,154 kills and 1,093 digs.  Putriment will join an exclusive club at Sage that when she hits the mark will boast just four members including herself.

Berard connected for 13 kills in the match, while freshman outside Sara Campolieta (Fulton, NY/G. Ray Bodley) added 23 digs. Rookie setter Rachel Liebig (Hartford, NY/Hartford) made the start for Sage and had 37 setting assists.
