Match 1 Recap: Manson vs Warden
The Trojans Sweep the Cougars in the Opening Match of Tournament Play
The Manson Trojans had a successful start to this year’s State 2B Volleyball Tournament this morning in the Yakima SunDome. Entering the tourney with the number two overall seed, Manson made quick work of dispatching Warden 3-0, winning by scores of 25-7, 25-19, and 25-16.
It was a complete team win with Manson excelling in all facets of the match. Setter Phinley Teague (junior) connected with senior Camille Hutton several times for big hits against the Cougars, and libero Genesis Torres seemed to be diving all over the court to dig the ball out. Freshman Aaliyah Torres was awarded the Sportsmanship Medallion for the Trojans at the conclusion of the match. Listen back to a recording of the live broadcast below for all of the match highlights!
Coach Hayli Thompson will lead her team into the quarter-finals this evening (Nov. 13) at 7:15 pm against the #7 seed River View after the Panthers defeated the Forks Spartans 3-0 earlier today. The Trojans beat the Panthers 3-0 just last week in the District playoffs. Tune in to the live broadcast at www.lakechelannow.com/live.
The winner of tonight’s match will advance to the semi-finals at 10 am on Thursday (Nov. 14), playing the winner of tonight’s match between Freeman and Rainier. The losers of these two quarter-final matches will meet in the consolation round at 8 am Thursday.
