The good news is that the 5th/6th grade girls could've won their last three games. The bad news is, they didn't.
For the third straight game, the 5th/6th grade girls came within points of winning, but again, fell short in the third and decisive set.
After winning the first set, the girls had a letdown in the second and third sets, and lost 19-25, 25-17, 15-10.
Again, the inconsistency in the serves were the undoing for the girls.
Aside from that however was that some of the girls are still scared of the ball, ducking out of the way. That cannot happen at a 6th grade level.
In a five team division, all but one team makes the playoffs, so at (1-3) their hopes for the post-season are very much alive.
But they'll need to get their act together to avoid more gut wrenching and frustrating defeats.

3rd/4th graders make it interesting in second set
It took a while to get the youngest volleyball team in the school to get going and when they did, they almost pulled off an upset in their fourth game of the season.
After dropping the first set 25-5, the girls held leads throughout the second set before ultimately dropping the second set 25-20.
Avalon and Rebecca were both very solid on their serves while Catharine and Sara chipped in also with a few returns.
Midway through the season, the girls are slowly getting acclimated to the game of volleyball. They still have their moments where they are learning, but progress is being made which is the most important thing.
The girls are beginning to call out their balls and managing to get some serves over.
Again, this is a team made up of four 3rd graders and two 4th graders, playing in a 4th grade division.
On Friday night, the girls lost in straight sets 25-13, 25-14.
