Just wanted to let you know what's been happening over here. We had a study hall (though many girls could not do some of their homework due to internet connection problems). We played 2 matches today. The way the pool play was set up is a little different than most tournaments. We only play 2 sets, win by 1 both today and tomorrow. Then in bracket play on Saturday it will return to 3 of 5. We started off playing KIUA (an international school from Japan). We lost both sets 12 - 25, 20 - 25. We started off a little tired but definitely got into it in the 2nd set. Early on in the 2nd set Milda served 3 aces & had 3 kills, Taylor had 4 kills, and Taran had 2 kills that gave us some momentum. KIUA had some good players that when they got to the front row towards the end of the game we couldn't stop them.
Our 2nd match we played against SMCL (a local Filipino team). We lost 17 - 25, 19 - 25. They were definitely a scrappy team and picked up everything that we spiked or returned to them. We learned a lot today and are looking forward to playing again tomorrow!
Aside from volleyball we have the opportunity to go out on a feeding tomorrow morning as a team and I am excited to share that experience with you all tomorrow. Thank you for your prayers!! Please continue to pray that the girls can continue to bond as a team :)
Go Knights!
