Happy B-day Rachael and Ellie Edition!

All 6 Teams Pose for a Pregame Pic

SK traveled to the center of Boone County for a fall break match-up with the Cooper Jaguars.  The break seemed to take some sting of energy from all three SK teams as they all went down in straight sets. 
 
In the first varsity set, the Neers fell behind double digits, right out of the gate as they trailed 15-5.  SK woke up and fought back to pull the score to 17-12 before the Jags went on to win by a final of 25-16.   

SK repeated their start in the second set as they fell down early, putting themselves in the hole at 10-4.  After an awesome volley with nice hustle plays by Sarah Sergent and Kelsey Holland followed up by a kill from Rachael Figgins, the Neers came roaring back to pull within one at 17-16.  Two SK miscues following the Cooper timeout gave the Jags a 19-16 advantage .  Cooper’s mo after the TO put them on an 8-3 run to dash the Pioneers hopes of the second set dub as Cooper cruises to the 25-19 win. 

The Neers reversed the early set doldrums as they got a good start by going up 4-3.  Cooper wasn’t about to loosen up the stranglehold on their potential sweep as they would go on a 8-3 run prompting a SK timeout.  SK failed to hold their early momentum and fell down 15-7.  SK would get a mid-set push but again unforced errors were their challenge as they fell in the final set by a score of 25-13 as the Neers finished the match without much energy.  Key stats for the night included 8 kills and 4 blocks from Rachael Figgins and 14 Digs from Schmee.   

The teams joined forces in Volley for Cure as a fundraiser for the Susan G. Komen Foundation through raffles and bake sales.  A nice effort by both programs. 


SK will play in the Cake Classic sponsored by Highlands Friday night and Saturday.  

Happy 18th Rach and Ellie!
