The Achaeans fell just short of the Covenant Christian Warriors by a score of 2-1 on Saturday. The Achaeans were given a dose of their own medicine in this game as the Warriors apparently hadn't forgotten their loss the last time these teams played back in August of 2024.
The 2-1 score doesn't really reflect how close the match was: every set was decided by two points or less. The final score came out to 22-25, 28-26, 15-13.
Covenant Christian found their leader in sophomore Anna Cope, who had 18 digs and three assists.
