Varsity loses (1-2): 22-25, 27-25, 26-24, 25-23, 15-13.
In a hard fought match with so many good points, the end result makes ya feel bad. We did alot of things right to try to minimize errors and play consistent. Another extremely sound game on Defense with very few offensive accolades. Our ratios are a bit backwards, we should be having the number of kills we have in the dig column! Kids having close to 30 digs a match (Jena Ertel #11, and Morgan Meyer #3) and the highest offensive weapon with 14 kills in the match Morgan Meyer #3. Never been that backwards before but looking at it like a challenge, cause if that offense gets rolling, we will be hard to stop!
JV wins (3-0): 25-16, 25-7 .
Strong serving is pushing this group of young ladies to high levels. Picking up 8 of the 13 aces on the evening were Monica Gerstbauer #24 going 15/15 from the serving line with 3 aces, and Kelsey Shupe #9 was 11/12 with five aces.
Freshman win (1-1): 25-20, 22-25, 15-14.
The freshman are learning to calm their nerves and play cohesive. Part of the team success last night was riding on the digs of Grace Laudick #2 with 18 digs and Paige Stirn #1 with six timely saves.
The JV and Varsity will welcome the golden Bears from Shelbyville for our home opener on Saturday 8/19 with a 10am Start.
