Sacred Heart hosted a junior high volleyball tournament that hosted six schools this weekend: Sacred Heart, Smith Cotton, Green Ridge, John B. Lange, Saint Peter and Paul, and St. Andrews. In a three set match, Saint Peter and Paul took first place and St. Andrews took second place.

 

In pool play, the girls took on John B Lange, Smith Cotton, and St. Peter and Paul. Sacred Heart won two sets against John B. Lange: first set 25-19, and second set 25-18. The team lost the second game of the night to Smith Cotton: first set 18-25, and second set 11-25. Saturday morning the girls took on a hard fought loss against Saint Peter and Paul: first set 18-25, and second set 15-25. In the bracket, the girls fought another hard loss to St Andrews: first set 19-25, second set 11-25, and third set 12-15.

 

Sacred Heart Junior High Volleyball Coach, Mrs. Kilby says, overall, she am proud of the hard work that the junior high girls put in. Despite the losses, the girls worked together in the toughest moments and came together as a team to play some great defense and offense on the court. Team setters, Ava Stone and Sophie Anderson, had some great saves out of the net; Emily Tienda and Sophia Carney played some amazing defense in the back; and Emilee Jackson had some great serves in the third set against St. Andrews.

 

She went on to say there was a great group of teams, coaches, parents, and fans this weekend. The competition was matched well, and all the teams played hard. Officials even complimented the school, teams, coaches, and parents, on how well everyone conducted themselves on and off the court.
