Our Last Night of Regular Season Volleyball


JV and C-team’s finished there seasons at a Quad on Tuesday against Cumberland, Northwestern and Ladysmith. It was a great night for JV as they won every match. They played hard and even made some great comebacks a few games. C-team had a tougher night and lost all games. It is a learning stage at C-team and we are excited to improve in the off season and in the coming years.

On Thursday Varsity finished up their conference tournament at Cumberland. It was a tough night and very tiring with playing 8 games. We also had one important player out with an injury and we lost another one to an injury later in the night. Buki Shabani and Katie Gobel stepped up to fill these spots. They both played very hard all night, along with all on our team.
 
Our first match was against Hayward. Our teams played back and forth all game but Hayward came ahead and won the match. 16-25 and 18-25.
 
Match two was against Northwestern. We played very hard game one and won 25-22. Game two was much closer but we still continued to play hard and on fire. Late in the game we lost a player to injury and another player stepped in to fill her position. Although we continued to play hard we lost 23-25. Game three was head to head the entire time, but we ended up losing 10-15.
 
Match three was against Cumberland whom we had beat two times already this season. Cumberland played very hard in all their matches and seemed to be very on their game. In game one we won 25-22 and although we took an early lead in game two we ended up losing in a nail biter 27-29. By game three we were very tired and although we still played hard we couldn’t get up to full strength and lost 9-15.
 
The next week will bring new challenges with filling spots that injuries have created. The girls are excited to play in regional play on Tuesday. We will head to Ashland to play at 7:00 pm. We invite everyone out to watch and support Spooner Volleyball.
