Two sets went past 25. We lost one by two and won the other by two. 🎥

Watch what the fourth set looked like — every point after 24-24 was a decision somebody had to make under pressure, and they kept making the right one.

Varsity Crusaders def. St. Pius X 3-1 in the home opener. 6-0.

HOME OPENER. HANDLED. 🏐

The Crusaders christened the home floor against St. Pius X — and two of three levels walked off with a W.

VARSITY — W 3-1
25-17 · 25-20 · 26-28 · 26-24
Dropped set 3 by two in extra points. Answered by winning set 4 by two in extra points. That's the whole season in one swing. Varsity moves to 6-0.

FRESHMAN — W 2-1
25-16 · 20-25 · 15-12
Lost the momentum, took it back in a third set that came down to the last three points. First win of the season. 🙌

JV — L 0-2
19-25 · 23-25
Two tight ones. They're closer than the scoreboard says.

Thank you to everybody who packed the gym for the first one at home. Do it again Tuesday.
