ELMIRA, N.Y. - Andrew Kim knocked in a match-high 15 kills to lead the No. 4 Vassar men's volleyball team to a 3-1 victory over No. 6 St. John Fisher in the second match of the day. The Brewers now move to 6-2 overall and 5-2 in the United Volleyball Conference (UVC). Meanwhile, the Cardinals move to 7-5 overall and 5-3 in UVC play. 

Vassar went ahead 9-5 after two straight kills from Kim and then an AJ Erickson service ace in the first set. St. John Fisher tied it 10-10 after Jake Baker blocked an attack from Gavin van Beveren.

The Brewers maintained a narrow lead, but eventually, the Cardinals tied it again at 18-18. Duchemin sent in a pair of kills to give Vassar a three-point advantage.
