‘Jills Working Hard

By Staff | Sep 16, 2009

The homestanding Valley Lumberjills Volleyball Team started out dazed and confused and fell behind to lose the first two sets to the Beallsville Blue Devils Sept. 9 by identical score of 25-14. However, the ‘Jills rallied with a vengeance with score of 22-25 and 23-25 to force a tie-breaker. However, the energy the Valley girls used to get back in the match showed in the tie-breaker with the Lady Blue Devils winning 15-8 to prevail in the set.

“Our serves in the first two sets were not very good and we didn’t play with any emotion or desire,” said Valley Volleyball Head Coach Gary Partridge. “The energy we used to get back in the match was great, but in the end, we just ran out of gas.”

Rachel Ice led the ”jills with 19 points, including three service aces, 25 assists and five digs. Tiffany Hayes and Leah Morris each recorded 15 points. Hayes added nine kills to lead the ”jills in that department, with Morris getting seven kills and two blocks. Kristen Wolfe chipped in with12 points, that included a pair of aces. She added five assists and digs, while smacking a pair of kills.

On Sept. 10 the ”jills strung together three nice sets to beat Madonna 25-21, 25-14 and 25-24 in another home match.

Carla Mason provided the homestanding ”jills all the fire power they needed with 19 points, including seven aces and three kills to lead Valley to victory. Wolfe followed with another fine performance, finishing the night with 18 points that included five service aces. She also contributed three kills and four digs.

Morris tallied 14 points, including six service aces. In addition, she had two blocks and bounced three spikes off Blue Dons for kills. Ice was as cool as she has been for awhile, adding 11 points that included three service aces, six digs and led the ”jills with 27 assists. The quiet one, Tiffany Hayes, scored two of her nine points via aces, while drilling five kills and floating three digs.

“What a game, after coming back to force Beallsville in to a tie breaker, to beat Madonna in straight sets. It says a lot about how the girls never die,” said Partridge.
