In a St. Mary's first, the 7th/8th grade girls played in an all day volleyball tournament at Mercy High School, which saw them play a total of 5 matches. Their earliest game starting at 9:30 a.m. and the latest a little after 5 p.m.
They started out strong in pool play winning two out of three matches, putting them in the winner's bracket as a second place team.
Up against some pretty strong teams, they lost game four in two sets and then game five in three sets, giving them fourth place for the tournament.
Most of the eight teams in the tournament were in higher divisions, featuring several girls on each team that played club volleyball. It was bump, set, spike and overhand serve galore.
The girls held their own and a bounce or two their way, they could've probably had third place.
It was a definite fun event as the girls were able to bond as a team the entire team, while eating Krispy Kreme, Cheeze-its, sandwiches and all sorts of other goodies in between their several games.
As for their CYO season, they currently sit at (3-1) at the midway point.
One of their coaches, Tiffany Ye, was not present at Saturday's event.
