Box Score 1 | Box Score 2 UTICA, N.Y. – After rolling passed Skidmore in four sets on Friday night, the Plattsburgh State volleyball team was unable to keep the momentum going on Saturday afternoon, falling first to SUNY Poly in a five-set battle, and then to St. John Fisher in straight sets in day two of the SUNY Poly Wildcat Weekend Invite.
