We opened the day with an impressive 2 game win over the Mavericks, with tight
scores of 25-23 and 25-23. We moved on playing the Eagles next. We
lost a hard fought 1st game 22-25 but came back strong to win the next two games
unquestionably! T he next game came quickly and we were coming on strong again.
Unfortunately, we lost with a close score of 22-25. This didn’t stop us
though, we came back and kicked butt winning 25-20 taking the match to 3 games.
We fought hard but in the end Pegasus came out on top with a 12-15 victory.
The girls had an hour break before our next game and Maxine kept us laughing
while we waited with anticipation for the results of pool play. In the end
the results were in our favor and we placed first in our pool. We moved on
to play the Astros, and advanced once again with two impressive scores of 25-11
and 25-14. Our next match was against the 2nd ranked team- the Colts.
This exciting match went to 3 games and determined who got the gold and silver
medals, and of course the Attack girls came out on top advancing us to the Gold
medal match.
We played right away taking on Pegasus once again. And like the match that
morning we took it to 3 games. We came on hard and took the first game
with a deserved score of 25-23. We lost the second game but our spirit
didn’t die. As the third game started to end the girls became tired but
kept pushing thanks to Linda’s Monday night training. The score was tight and
the pressure was on, but we did it once again and pulled through walking away
with a Gold medal!!!!! We had amazing passing all weekend, topped off with
great hits from power by Shannon and Zinet.
