The Batesville JV Volleyball team improved to 4-0 with a strong road win over Shelbyville. Scores were 25-22, 25-18. Nikki Fox scored 10 points including 3 aces, while Belle Wolters hit all 10 of her serve attempts to chip in with 6 points. Katie Bedel and Fox led the offense with 4 and 3 kills respectively. Grace Sarringhaus had a team high 10 digs to pace the team.
In the varsity match we gain saw uneven levels of play which are hurting our chance to win. Although, in set two of the match we put on a dominating performance of which any opponent would be in awe of… We served and blocked for a total of 10 out to the 25 points and we backing all that with a transition offense which looked great. That’s when a 5 minute intermission for sponsorship serving games took the wind from our sails. We may be a 1-3 team right now, but are on the verge of a breakthrough… and when we do there will be notice served to all opponents!.
Today saw the return of senior middle hitter #20 Hattie Westerfeld who commanded 7 kills, 4 blocks and 2 aces in the loss to the Golden Bears 25-23, 12-25, 25-16, 25-22.
We will face Greensburg on Monday in the 2nd EIAC match of the season in the dog pound. JV start time will be 5:00.
