The Blue and White's scored a 3-2 (25-18, 25-20, 22-25, 23-25, 15-11) victory to mark its 28th consecutive CSAC win, improving the club to 9-5 overall and 2-0 in league play.

After surrendering the first three points of the match, Cabrini rallied to take the next seven points.  The Knights pulled to within 8-5 before the Cavaliers reeled off five straight points to take a commanding 13-5 lead, en route to a 25-18 first set win.

Neumann built an early lead in the second set before Cabrini won nine of the next 11 points, taking a 14-9 lead.  Neumann fought back to a 17-16 deficit before the Cavaliers won five of six points, taking the second set 25-20.

The Knights ran out to an early lead in the fourth set and never trailed in the frame.  The Cavaliers evened the score at 14 and 15 but couldn't get over the hump, as Neumann evened the score at 2-2 with a 25-23 fourth set win.

With the match coming down to the all-important fifth set, both teams built early leads, but with the score tied at 4-4, the Cavaliers rallied to win six of the next seven points to take a 10-5 lead.

Three Neumann points pulled the Knights to within 10-8 but Cabrini answered with three straight points of its own, before closing the match with a 15-11 triumph in the final frame.   

The Cavaliers have a few days to recover from tonight's action before visiting Widener University (9-6, 1-1 Commonwealth) on October 1.  First serve is slated for 7 p.m. in Chester, Pa.
