The JV team played similarly to the Varsity in the sense that their scores were high for both sets. They lost with a final outcome of 0-2. The first set was 21-25 and the second 22-25.

“The best thing about the game was how hard we worked and communicated,” freshman Amanda larson said. “The most amazing moment is when there was a ball shanked and Mikaela Noe ran and got it back into play Addy Grantham played it over. When it came back Lesley Hall spiked it back and got a kill.”
