The Lady Aces faced Edwards County at the hilltop on Thursday night. The Varsity Aces had a big run in the first set but strung together a run of errors losing 20-25, and 20-25 the second set. They have to forget errors and go to the next ball, but instead just continued to play tight Thursday night.
Stat totals Lyla Keepes 1 ace, 6 kills, 2 digs, Avery Coston 3 kills, 1 dig, Gabby Schneider 1 ace, 5 assists, 2 digs, Mylee Farmer 1 assist, 5 digs, Quincy Keepes 3 assists, 4 digs, Mercedes Dillard 1 ace 1 dig, Cate Pyatt 1 ace, 2 kills, 2 blocks, 2 digs. Leila Sweeney 4 digs, Presley Stevens 1 kills.
The JV team played much more confident tonight, but Edwards County put up a strong defense and won both sets 23-25, 20-25, but I look to see great things from this group.
JV stats Caroline Blake 3 aces, 3 kills, 3 digs, Quinn Rooney 4 aces, 1 kill, 5 digs, Mia Dickerson 1 kill, 2 digs, 1 block, Kennedy Krajac 1 ace, Ryleigh Gill 1 aces, 9 digs, 1 assist, Harper Warnken 1 dig, 5 assists, Macy Glenn 1 dig, Destiny Dongu 1 dig.
The Frosh lost the first set 20-25, and the second set won 18-11. They ran out of time to finish but played with good momentum.
The Aces will be in Fairfield Saturday for tournament play starting with NCOE at 9:30.
