Coach’s Comments:
I’m really happy to come out with a 3-0 win versus Wausau West. We were without Della Smith tonight, so I was really impressed with our team in them playing at a high level. Hope Kelnhofer was asked to take over for Della’s position and really did a nice job in both quality attacks and serve reception. Our attackers were really efficient tonight hitting probably our best % of the year at 0.326. Kailyn Kurth spread the ball around to everyone and they really did a great job putting a solid swing or tip on every set. We ended with only 8 hitting errors on the night. Defensively, I thought we really read their attackers well and got the ball up to transition into effective offense.
