Match Summary
The Phoenix Varsity team had an entertaining matchup with the Lady Wildcats. Though the shorthanded Phoenix team had 4 middle schoolers in their rotation, the two squads were evenly matched and struck back and forth all evening, with multiple long rallies. The Phoenix girls stepped up their offense in this game, with flurries of hits, made possible in part by effective setting from Isabelle Zack, Mckenzie Bryant and Miley Zeiss. In the end, though, the Wildcats were able to defend our attacks better than we were able to defend theirs, and they pulled off a come from behind victory in the 4th set to win the match.
