Volleyball: I hope your fingernails grow back!!

If you have not watched the varsity volleyball team play a game this season, you don't know what you are missing! After winning the first game 25-20, the lady lions fell to Amelia in the next two games. Being down 11-4, the girls fought back to take the fourth game. With the match tied 2 games each the Barons' got off to a 9-3 lead, and the deciding game only goes to 15 points. But the lions rallied once again to tie it up at 11. Then it went back and forth, we took a one point lead, then tied, one point lead, then tied. With the girls fighting hard and the gym roaring, the Barons' took the two point lead that was needed to win the game 19-17. Leading stats for the game were Hannah Lang with 27 assists, Brittney Strunk with 16 kills, Myla Gordo with 18 digs, and Lindsey Blankenship with 8 powerful blocks. The girls will play Batavia and Mariemont on Saturday at Mariemont. Come out and watch the girls as they play these fast-paced, intense games.
