🏐❤️ CARDINALS BATTLE AT CEREAL CITY! ❤️🏐

The Coldwater Varsity Volleyball Team put together a GREAT day of volleyball at the Battle Creek Cereal City Tournament at Pennfield High School! These girls competed, battled, supported one another, and showed exactly what we mean when we talk about PROGRESS OVER PERFECTION. 💪

🔥 POOL PLAY
vs. Sturgis — Split | 26-24, 20-25
vs. St. Phil — WIN | 25-23, 25-20
vs. Hopkins — WIN | 25-20, 25-15

The Cardinals finished 1st in their pool

🏆 GOLD BRACKET
Quarterfinals vs. Homer — WIN! | 25-19, 25-15
Semifinals vs. Marshall — 12-25, 21-25

Our Cardinals rallied and continued to fight, but ultimately fell to Marshall in the Gold Semifinals. While it wasn't the ending we wanted, there was SO much to be proud of throughout the day.

This team played together incredibly well. They were relentless. They communicated. They celebrated each other. They responded to adversity. And most importantly, they continued to grow.

🏐 Kaitlyn Senyk — 9 Kills
