Jackson and Conference Duals

--> Jackson – Home

On Tuesday, we played Jackson at home.  It was a fantastic night for the Lady Wranglers!  Freshman, JV, and Varsity all pulled out big WINS!  Varsity came out a little slow to start, but they fought hard to the very end.  We have had some tough losses before this game, but I was proud of the way the girls handled the losses and came out fighting.  They played as a team, and overall they had fun!  As a team we served 94%, with Vashti, Bekah, Kyla, and Tayln all had 100% of their serves in.  Vashti had 7 aces and this is her all time high for aces.   Vashti also had 19 kills; Teerstyn had 7 kills, and Shawna and Bekah with 6 kills.  Taylor and Ali did a great job defending Jackson’s hits and passing out of serve receive.  Tayln had 39 assists and she did a great job setting.   This was a good win for us, one of which we needed.

Conference Duals

This was a challenging weekend for the Varsity.  We did not play as well as I would of hoped.  The last game on Sat. was against Jackson again, and we lost, BUT the girls came out playing like I know they can.  They fought hard but came up a bit short in the 5th game.   This year our conference is very interesting.  There really is not one team, maybe besides Star Valley, that is dominating the conference.  And really what it boils down to is who shows up to play that day.   We lost all four games, but we had some great moments.  I used my bench a lot this weekend, and it showed me as a coach that I really can depend on them.  Most of them are sophomores and a few juniors, but I was impressed on how they stepped up to the plate when given the chance.  Gilly McFarland came into a varsity match for the first time and helped us out with passing and defense.  She did a great job for us, but unfortunately, she hurt her ankle and may be out for the season.  Baylee Buchanan came in and helped us out with passing and defense and she did a great job.  I’m excited to work with her more and I know that she will contribute to our team.  Cassidy Williams got into a varsity match for the first time and served for us.  She also did a great job.   Vashti and Shawna had a great match against Jackson.  Vashti had 21 kills with Shawna having 7 kills.  Tayln contributed to that game with 45 assists.  It was a great game.    Overall, I hope we can put Conference Duals behind us and get ready for Star Valley on Thursday and Cokeville on Sat.  These two games will be really competitive matches, but great matches to play right before going into Regionals.  I’m excited to see what we can do.
