The adrenaline from both teams was flourishing, and the fans were full of excitement. Cheers from both Wynford and Mohawk were louder than ever with every point scored. The score continued going back and forth with the final match won by the lady Royals by a score of 15-13. Every fan rose to their feet when the ball hit the ground for the final point. Brooke Miller, the libero for the Wynford Royals, shared her thoughts on how she played as well as her team. “I started out rough, my passing struggled, but as the game progressed, I, along with the team, played scrappier and more aggressive.” Miller had 15 successful serves, one being an ace. Alyssa Harrer also shared her opinion of her team’s performance. “In the beginning the team started out rough, but when we won the third game, we realized that we could definitely win.” The lady Royals had 40 successful blocks and only two errors. They also had 45 kills throughout the game.
