Match Summary
This was a huge test for our program, Classical Academy gave CCA some serious competition. Our team started off with some incredible energy in the first set, and we really worked hard. The second set, we unfortunately played lower than our potential, and we really had to battle back, where Tony Qu went on an incredible five point serving run, and our defense did their job at the net. The third set, we struggled and beat ourselves while trying to find our rhythm, and Classical took advantage and did a great job. In the fourth set, we found what it took it compete against Classical Academy, and once we found our rhythm, we did incredibly well. Our blockers closed while along the net, and worked on siding out right away, to avoid being stuck in rotations, each player had fight and worked so hard while battling through adversity.
