Tuesday night 🌙 was our third consecutive Triple Header with the Middle School team and the youngest of our Lady Cavaliers went out in style by defeating the Bobcats 2-1 ( 25-15, 25-18, 9-15).
Head Coach Brittany Kinney was out of town for some educational classes in Northern Virginia so Kelly Holderfield slid into the Captains chair 💺 with both Nikki Heflin and Kayla Nester by her side.
CCMS led 7-5 when Laynee Burnett served up five consecutive points, including four straight Aces, to push the score out to 12-5. Briley McGhee scored two Kills and Lillian Spencer added an Ace to make it 18-9. The Lady Cavaliers finished out the set when Emma Keith scored the set closing Kill at 25-15.
The second set was knotted up 11-11 until CCMS scored five straight points with Peyton Burcham at the service line. McGhee made it 18-12 with an over the shoulder Kill. McGhee added two more late Kills, Burnett added one more service winner and Spencer scored the match point to close out the 25-18 victory.
The two teams played a third set to 15 afterwards, giving both teams much needed playing time for their rosters. The Bobcats team won the final set 15-9 but the Lady Cavaliers finished up with some highlights. Laken Lintecum served three straight points to cut the deficit to 11-9 before the visitors closed out the set with the final four points.
Fun three nights 🌙 with the three teams playing under the same roof. As Coach Kinney and Coach Holderfield finish up their season, PLEASE know that 🙏 in and all updates are Welcome here.
On a personal note 📝 , I did my best to create as positive of an atmosphere for the young ones the past three nights, because they are our future!
