Match Summary
Tournament summary: In our team's first true JV tournament, we faced tough opponents in our opening pool play. The young Phoenix team managed to keep the first set close, with fantastic serving and few mistakes. Throughout the remainder of the tournament, they weren't able to keep it close, versus the much older and more experienced JV teams. Our girls had very solid serving throughout the match, as well as improved serve receiving and some impressive ball-handling plays and rallies! Unfortunately, we struggled with playing balls out of the net, with making organized plays, and with making good offensive hits to keep the heat off of our defense. This team faced a real challenge today and managed to keep their composure, and they will learn and grow through their experience!
