AUSTIN, PA – Taking to their road for the first taste of action, the Bradford volleyball team swept Austin in three clean sets. 

The Lady Owls got right to work early, dominating in the first set and pulling out a 25-13 win. However, the Lady Panthers would fire back as they started to find their legs, albeit losing the next set as well, 25-18. In the do-or-die set for Austin, they came as close as ever to pulling out a win over the Lady Owls, yet still were unable to find a win, ultimately losing 26-24. 

Bradford was led by Emma Pilon, who tallied 10 kills while Haley Keane finished with nine. Addison Carter opened the 2025 campaign with five kills alongside Aliya Corignani, who facilitated the offense with 23 assists and two kills.
