Last Saturday, the volleyball team played a doubleheader with the first game against the Cleveland Central Catholic Ironwomen (4-3) and the second contest against the Rhodes Rams (2-1). The Hurricanes came into this day with a 0-9 record but were looking to turn their season around. For reference, both games were played as best-of-3 matches.
In the first set of match one, the Ironwomen and the Hurricanes went back and forth, with neither team establishing major runs. It seemed like it was going down to the wire, but the Hurricanes prevailed with a 25-21 victory to take a 1-0 lead.
The second set was about the same with both teams continuing to trade points and defensive stops. Once again, the Hurricanes pulled away and won the set 25-18 to earn their first victory of the season.
After a short break, the Hurricanes were back in action with the mindset of continuing the day with success and teamwork.
Right out of the gate, they seemed in control as they took down the Rams in the first set, 25-10.
They continued their momentum into the second set as they were en route to a doubleheader sweep with a 25-14 win.
Seniors Ali Millin and Jade Riedel were the deciding factors in this match with Millin leading the team with 17 kills and Riedel leading the defense with 18 digs.
Head coach Debbie Hall was pleased with her team’s performance and hopes that they will continue to ride high for the rest of the season.
“These wins were a full-team effort with each and every member of the team contributing and playing their best. Hopefully, this will give us the momentum to build on for the rest of the season,” stated an elated Hall.
Congratulations, girls!
