Another Spooner Win


Last night Spooner volleyball had three exciting matches. JV and Cteam started it off with JV taking a win against Cumberland, 26-24 (S), 20-25, 15-11 (S) and Cteam taking a win against Cumberland 23-25, 25-20 (S), 15-13 (S). We are very proud of how much they’ve improved in our month of practices.

Varsity was up next and we came off with a bang. Our girls were pumped up and ready to play. The smiles and excitement in their faces could be seen on the court. We won the first game 25-22. In the 2nd game we came off strong. Our serving was on and so were our hits. We won that game 25-14. In the 3rd game we lost a little of our energy, but fought back and forth with Cumberland. We ended up losing that game 21-25. In the 4th game we came out strong and rallied our energy. Playing long games is tiring on a player and our girls fought through that. We won this game 25-16 to beat Cumberland in the match. This is our 2nd conference win of the season and our team couldn’t be more excited. You could hear the girls after the game remarking that they were excited that all three teams took home a win. As a coach I love that the girls care about each other and are proud to be one whole high school team. Varsity is 2-0 in conference play and 5-2 overall. We want to say thank you to all the community members, family members, friends, and high school students who came out to cheer us on last night. Your support is great and it’s what keeps Spooner sports alive. We always play better with a crowd too. Also a thank you goes out to the select choir led by Destiny Schultz that sang our national anthem to start the Varsity match.
 
We play Thursday at Northwestern. Our JV also travels to Shell Lake on Saturday for the Shell Lake tournament. All three teams will play at home next Tuesday for parents and Jr. Passer night against Ladysmith.
