The Girl played her last volleyball game as a high schooler today. I thought her quarter-final game a few weeks ago was her final game, but she got an invitation to play in the state all-star game, and of course, she didn’t pass that up! What an honor for our girl.
The game itself was as exciting as one could imagine. L’s team (North) dropped the first two sets, but not terribly. They just couldn’t get everything to click like South could. In the third set, though, they found their moment and took it, winning 28-26. They took the fourth set as well, and suddenly, instead of having their backs to the wall, they’d evened the game at two sets each. But it was not to be. The North team fell apart in the final set, losing 5-15.
But still — what an honor for the Girl. What a way to end a high school volleyball career.
