Alexandria Mao, who was named to the All-Invitational Team, recorded a match-high 15 kills. She added six digs and a service ace.

"Geneseo was a formidable opponent, but we were prepared for the battle," said NYU Head Coach Jolie Ward. " We applied strategic offensive and defensive strategies which kept us on top. The ability of our returners to remain aggressive was the key to our success today."
