Long awaited win comes for the 8th grade

**HIGHLIGHTS BELOW**

The 8th grade girls snapped a five game losing streak and won for the first time since their season opener in a straight set laugher. They were neck and neck in the first set and pulled away to win set one 25-20 and then followed that by slaughtering the other team 25-5.

The second set win is by far the biggest margin of victory for any St. Mary's volleyball team in the modern era. It might've been even more lopsided if it weren't for the ten serves in a row rule which Kristine hit for the second straight game.

Catharine might've hit the ten serve limit as she closed out the match, serving eight straight balls over en route to the win.

It was a complete all-around effort by the team. Each girl was strong on the serve, and they had very few faults. They were able to serve receive and set up several bump, set and spike plays. They also played their best by the net and scored several points on tips, most notably coming from Serina and Catharine.

Their confidence is a lot higher than it was after their thud two weeks ago, and they'll look to take that into the season finale tomorrow afternoon.
