Area League #3
14-Silver
Match #1 – This was a very intense game with both teams exhibiting
skills that were very similar. With a line-up that was a little
different for the first game, all players responded with solid playing
most of the time. Emma had a great game with 7 aces, 2 kills.
There was strong leadership from Shelby. Match #2 – With one game
behind them and a more familiar line-up 14-Silver came out strong
against a young but scrappy Crush in both games. There was strong
setting from Avalon, Antonia, and Shelby in both games. Nyssa
chalked up three kills and tough serving from the back line.
After this win 14-Silver took first in its pool to compete during
bracket play. Match #3 – Crush was once again scrappy and
determined, but 14-Silver was able to come out ahead thanks to the
serving of Antonia, Emma and Stephanie. Antonia put down 7 kills
in two games. Kara, Avalon, and Jenny put up a fight as they came
off the bench. Match #4 – The competition for this match was a
little more equal which was shown through the rallies and side out
plays from both teams. Emma served up 10 aces, and showed great
leadership. Carly and Jenny had a unique presence on the floor
and meshed well when put on the court. Hatley and Stephanie possessed
great net play in the way of blocks and sweeps along the net.
