Rawlins Tournament- JV

What a great weekend for Pinedale Volleyball. JV & Varsity had a great weekend in Rawlins and Freshman had a great weekend back at home.  The JV team took second in their pool putting them in the Gold Bracket on Saturday.  They beat Torrington in 2 and split with Glenrock and Mt View.  They played great on Friday and had a 2.17 passing average for the whole day.  This was key to most of our wins, making it easy for Tayln to set up our hitters.  On Saturday we opened up with Lyman and beat them in 2 with scores of 21-14, 21-5.  We had to go back to splitting up the JV and Varsity teams.  A lot of sophomores stepped in and we did not lose a beat.  We then faced Rawlins in the semi-finals after a 6 game wait.  We came out sluggish and couldn't get back to playing Pinedale Volleyball. We lost 17-21,18-21.  We then played Buffalo for 3rd place.  We showed a lot of heart and finally started to turn it around after the last game.  We lost the first game 16-21 then battled back to win the second game 21-17.  The third game was only to 15 and we had a slump in serve receive.  We lost 10-15 and ended up 4th in the Gold Bracket. I'm proud of the girls and how they showed up to play all weekend.  They took fourth out of 16 teams with all but one being 3A. We still have a lot to improve on,  but they are getting better and better every week.

Highlights:
Bailey Lozier- Served 14 points straight in the Lyman game! With at least 4 aces!
Taylor Connors- Passed with an average of 2.52 on Friday
Bekah Knapp- Hit very well on Friday with a hitting 37.5%
Shawna Rule- 9 Serve Aces
