It was an up and down night for volleyball at the dog pound with close sets and blow outs in the same matches at all levels.
In the Varsity match the lady dogs followed the pattern of the night, coming out cold and hitting -.083 with 10 errors on 36 swings. Things settled down after dropping the first set, but we still had our share of peaks and valleys. We ran some plays that looked like a college team running quicks, and others we just looked flat and on our heals. Varsity takes out wildcats in the end 20-25, 25-18, 25-12, 15-19.
Batesville vs FC Varsity VB (9-30)
In the JV match our players really struggled to find the court offensively at the start of the first set, committing way more hitting errors and keeping the game close. The second set was more consistent and fundamental volleyball. Dogs win 25-24, 25-17.
Batesville vs. FC- JV VB (9-30)
Freshman could not find a rhythm agains the younger wildcat team as the Lady Dogs lose 25-22, 12-25, 15-13.
The Bulldogs can take some time to regroup as the varsity team will play on Saturday at the Richmond Invitational. First match of pool play will be against Guerin Catholic @ 9 AM.
