Rapid City Christian proved they can win big on Thursday (they won by three) and on Saturday they proved they can win the close ones too. They narrowly escaped with a victory as the squad sidled past the Chadron Cardinals 2-1. For the Comets, this counts as revenge for the 3-1 win the Cardinals walked away with the last time they faced one another back in October of 2024.
It was an exciting match in which no team won back-to-back sets, but at the end of the day Rapid City Christian got the one that really mattered. The match finished with set scores of 25-11, 18-25, 25-20.
Chadron's loss shouldn't obscure the performances of Vrasai Sayaloune, who had 15 digs, and Sophie Watson, who had 17 digs, five kills, and two aces.
