In a must-win situation, Walpole started out ready to take charge. When they played aggressively and applied the pressure on Milton, they were able to earn their points and take Milton out of system. Dips in Walpole's focus and energy allowed Milton to take control. Walpole was able to bring themselves back in the match and take set 4, but could not keep the momentum in set 5, resulting in a match loss.

The Rebel gym was rocking tonight. Walpole played with tremendous energy and fought to the very end. The crowd was electric from the 1st point of the match to the last. It had the feel of a state tournament match and was alot of fun.
