Match Summary
Too many service, hitting and ball handling errors on our end...we can be much better than we were tonight. We have got to clean things up and be smart with the ball instead of being terminal. There are times, much too often, where we blast balls out of bounds or into the net when we should be able to control the ball and place it to the opponents side and reset ourselves...hoping that will develop as the kids play more together. We don't have a ton of court experience and at times, it really hurts us. We need to continue to grow with each and every opportunity!
Clear Fork Game: We went in this game determined to be mentally tough. Our libero Courtney Weekley dominated the backrow: 35 SR and 2 errors. Kali Weikle had 28 Hits with 9 kills, Aubrey Bailey had 17 hits and 2 kills, Kaitlin Wuertz had 34 hits and 8 kills, and our freshman Bekah Conrad had 18 hits and 7 kills. Our senior Malorie Kinney did a great job running the floor as our setter.
