From Assistant Coach Bonnie Keepes: Monday night the MCHS Lady Aces traveled to Oblong. The Varsity squad started off great. They were attacking strong and had lots of good pickups. They won the first set 25-14. The second set the girls had a little momentum shift starting with some service errors. The set was back and forth for most of it, but the Aces edged out the Panthers in the end 25-23.
Stats were Sarah McCorkle, 2 aces, 5 digs, 21 assists. Madi Stevens 1 ace, 7 digs, 7 kills, Jayla Johnson 1 ace, 5 digs, 5 kills, Maycee Randall,1 dig, 4 kills, 2 block kills, 1 dig, Kyleigh Smith 1 ace, 10 digs, 5 kills, Lyla Keepes, 2 aces, 8 digs 2 kills, Mercedes Dillard 7 digs, Mylee Farmer 1 dig.
The JV match the girls were slow to get good momentum. Oblong had a scrappy team that tipped often, once our girls cleaned up some attacking errors we surged ahead winning in 3 sets.
26-28, 25-23, and 15-11.
